When Small Just Isn’t Small Enough; INSPECTIS Launches Micro Size Optical Probe Tip for BGA Inspection
June 3, 2025 | INSPECTISEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The Inspectis BGA inspection system now offers the tiniest optical probe, the Micro Size Optical Probe Tip, for users who feel that they need to get ‘really small’. As BGA packages and their standoffs continue to shrink, viewing under them becomes ever more difficult, making accurate and comprehensive inspection extremely challenging. The Micro Size Optical Probe Tip, however, works like an inverted periscope, viewing the underside of tiny components at a 90-degree angle with an optical probe tip footprint of only 0.4 x 3.5 mm and a width of only 3.5mm.
“The Inspectis BGA inspection system now features the tiniest optical probe with high-resolution optics,” said Alistair Gooch, Marketing Manager. “With its built-in LED lighting, 5.0-megapixel image sensor and high-power background illumination, the Inspectis BGA Inspection System, equipped with the Micro Size Optical Probe Tip, produces high-resolution images of the extremely low-clearance areas beneath BGAs and other tiny packages with as low as 40 microns stand-off.”
Ergonomically designed, the unit is mounted on a compact yet robust stand with an X-Y translation stage for maximum flexibility and configurability. The unique side-view BGA Inspection system features the tiniest and most robust optical probe available with built-in high-power lighting and a crisp, sharp high-resolution 90-degree viewing angle.
