PC2100
Thermal Imaging System

Compix PC2100USB Thermal Analysis System with Magnification Lens

  • PC2100/USB provides imaging capability for laptop PC's.
  • Provides imaging resolution to < 2 mils.
  • Standard image format (TIFF).

The Compix PC2100 and PC2100/USB thermal imaging systems combine the proven features of the Compix PC2000 system with a custom lens and other enhancements to provide accurate non-contact temperature measurements of fine pitch, small-geometry components. With the Compix PC2100, you can quickly evaluate thermal behavior of semiconductors, hybrid circuits and multichip modules (MCMs), measuring features of 0.002 inches or less. And the lens can be quickly removed to convert the system to a conventional PC2000.

Affordable, Comprehensive Thermal Analysis

Previously this level of spatial resolution was available only in systems costing $60,000 or more. Priced at  $18,500, the PC2100 continues the Compix tradition of leading the industry in price and value. 

Performance for a Variety of Applications

The Compix PC2100 provides unprecedented versatility at this low price. With the lens installed, it delivers the detailed resolution necessary to isolate thermal problems and verify reliability at the individual component level where thermocouples and temperature probes can't be used. Removing the lens converts the camera to a standard PC2000USB. You now have a system capable of giving you quick, comprehensive images of circuit boards, power supplies, disk drives, and other system components.
