Thermal imaging aids electronics reliability
OptoTherm has released an affordable thermal imaging system for use in electronics industry applications such as product design and testing.
Engineers attempting to debug an existing system will find this as an indispensable tool for probing and viewing signals on a logic analyser, oscilloscope, meter or other instrument.
This complete hands-free system allows engineers to focus on the analysis rather than on how to physically probe the system, regardless of the availability of test points on the PCB.
The following components are included in the in the PCB probe kit: an arm probe with a heavy base, spring loaded tip, rotatable head and fine vertical adjustment knob to enable precise positioning to adjacent test points; small lead clips enabling quick connection to SMD leads from 0.5 to 0.2mm lead pitch; large lead clips enabling connection to leads from 1.25 to 0.3mm lead pitch; SMD clips available in 0201, 0402, 0603 and 0805 sizes; an SMD clip support with guide wire; and an integrated magnifying glass with tweezers designed to assist the user when working on small components in tight areas.
