This Product Selection Guide contains information to help select products in the Microscopes category on DigiKey.com
Products in the microscope family use optics alone or in conjunction with digital imaging technology to allow objects of small size to be viewed or photographed. Commonly used in electronics contexts for manual visual inspection of components or completed assemblies, they are also used to aid manual assembly of systems or devices incorporating components too small to be viewed conveniently or accurately with the unaided eye.
