Equipment Arsenal
Industrial Stereo Microscope
7X – 45X Continuous Optical Zoom + 4K Camera Output
High-definition optical inspection essential for spotting microscopic cracked solder joints, liquid corrosion, and tracing severed inner-layer copper lines under 45X magnification.
Digital Storage Oscilloscope
Rigol DS1000 Series Digital Oscilloscope
Enables real-time visualization of high-frequency digital clock signals, transient power startup sequences, and ripple under different load conditions.
16-Channel Digital Logic Analyzer
16-Ch High-Speed Protocol Analyzer
Simultaneously monitors multi-line digital interfaces (I2C, SPI, UART, CAN and more) to uncover protocol timing discrepancies, missing ACK signals, or bus contention.
5 ½ Digit Precision Bench Multimeter
Laboratory-Grade High Precision DMM
Provides microvolt and sub-milliohm resolution far exceeding standard handheld meters. Critical for pinpointing exact coordinates of shorted decoupling capacitors on low-voltage rails.
DC Bench Power Supply
30V 10A Laboratory DC Supply
Delivers clean, low-ripple constant voltage (CV) and constant current (CC) power rails with over-current protection (OCP) and over-voltage protection (OVP).
C245 / C210 & T12 Precision Rework Station
Interchangeable Handle High-Frequency Induction Solder Station
Rapid heating with active thermal feedback. 3-in-1 tool with ultra-fine C210 nano-tips for micro-jumpers and C245 high-mass knives for massive ground planes.
Infrared Thermal Imaging Camera
High-Resolution PCB Thermal Imager
Visualizes tiny shorts in real time when injecting current, and evaluates circuit thermal dissipation and hotspot behavior under various operating conditions.
Quick Digital Hot Air Rework Station
Calibrated Closed-Loop Hot Air Rework System
Delivers smooth airflow with closed-loop temperature stabilization for non-destructive removal and replacement of QFNs, MOSFETs, and SMD components.
High-Precision PCB Preheating Station
Uniform Thermal Bed Heating System
Provides uniform underside thermal warming to prevent board warping during heavy ground-plane soldering and SMT reflow.
NOR & NAND Programmer
Universal BIOS/EEPROM Programmer
Reads, verifies, and flashes NOR/NAND chips, microcontrollers, and system firmware directly out-of-circuit or via test clips.
3D Printer
Precision 3D Rapid Prototyping
Custom in-house fabrication of specialized test jigs, pogo-pin programming fixtures, PCB standoffs, and customized electrical enclosures.
