Creative Electron Premieres TruView 10 X-Ray Software
March 19, 2018 | Creative ElectronEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Creative Electron unveiled its new software at the IPC – Association Connecting Electronics Industries (IPC) Apex Expo. The software is an innovative approach to the user-experience of inspection and analysis.
This year, for the company’s 10-year anniversary, Creative Electron updated the heart of its x-ray machinery. On display at APEX Expo, the new interface amazed passers’ by with its speed and ease of use. The new TruView 10 x-ray Software boasts automated paths with repeatable tests, user created programs and test procedures, and overall increased system speed.
“The updates create a smooth relationship between user and machine,” remarks Anh Nguyen, vice president of software development at Creative Electron. However, this is “not your mother’s” user experience. Human error is minimalized by Creative Electron’s creation of a modern dashboard interface. This interface uses real time reporting to produce actionable data, a critical weapon in diagnosing costly production issues. This is a fully automated imaging process that gives quality inspection managers peace of mind. The new TruView 10 Software eliminates concerns about under qualified operators. The principle of “trusting your instruments” finally applies in the x-ray industry.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
