Economical digital microscope includes built-in LCD for standalone PCB inspection

The Saelig SAE106S Digital Microscope is a versatile tool designed specifically for PCB inspection, but can also prove to be useful in many other fields such as coin or mechanical part examination.

The SAE106S may be used as a standalone inspection device for circuit board examination using its built-in 4.3-in LCD screen or it may also be connected to a PC. Illumination is enhanced by an eight-LED adjustable ring light and two additional repositionable, dimmable side lights to allow optimal contrast viewing. The SAE106S offers 10X-220X magnification for discovering the smallest blemish or trace problem, and resultant images and videos may be stored on an SD card or transferred to a Windows PC. The SAE106S features a large non-conducting ABS plastic base for supporting the PCB being examined.

Visual inspection is a premier tool in PCB debug activities. Searching for missing, incorrect or charred components, bad solder joints, and solder bridges is the first order of business when a bad board comes in for repair. This becomes much easier with a powerful microscope such as the SAE106S. Looking for solder whiskers or bridges between pads or solder joints is especially challenging between the pins of fine-pitch SMD chips without significant magnification. If the problem is a short, it may be plainly visible on the full-color LCD screen as a burned spot that is discolored brown, instead of the normal green solder mask of the PCB.

Features include:
A 4.3-in full HD LCD screen. 10x-220x continuously adjustable magnification
High-quality optics for extremely sharp 1080p images
High-quality precision-adjustable stand adjusts the camera-object distance and magnification.
UV filter that protects the lens, reduces reflections and stray light.
Images and videos can be saved to a microSD card (< 32GB). USB 3.0 SD Card reader and SD card included. 8 LED ring illumination with adjustable intensity control for optimal illumination levels. Two arm-mounted movable/dimmable fill lights for additional lighting control and contrast Comprehensive English user manual The SAE106S Digital PCB Microscope is available now from Saelig.
