Precision Inspection for Advanced Electronics
Yatherm Scientific is proud to introduce you, its High-Performance Autofocus Microscope, which is specifically manufactured for semiconductor wafer inspection and microelectronic component examination. We made sure that it is made in such a way that it fulfills the needs of today's miniaturized devices. This microscope provides automatic autofocus imaging, making sure you experience constant clarity and nullifying the errors which can occur during manual focusing inspection.
Autofocus Technology for Absolute Preciseness
We crafted this with a specialized system, which is loaded with advanced autofocus functionality, making it possible to allow rapid adjustments across all the multi-layered wafer structures. This ensures that every feature, no matter what, whether fine lithography patterns, thin films, or solder joints, is perfectly captured with maximum level sharpness. Because of its automatic focusing feature, the microscope enhances the inspection speed, accuracy, and repeatability, giving you the benefit of reduction in fatigue of the operator and no humanly caused errors.

Frequently Asked Questions: Autofocus Microscopes for Semiconductor Inspection
What is an autofocus microscope used for in semiconductor inspection?
An autofocus microscope is used to examine wafers, ICs, PCBs, and other microelectronic components after processes like lithography, etching, or plasma cleaning, without an operator manually adjusting focus for every field of view. That matters most on multi-layered wafer structures, where manual focus drift between layers is a common source of missed defects.
How fast is the autofocus function on this microscope?
The AF-202 autofocuses in roughly 1 second, which keeps inspection throughput high on production lines where hundreds of components or fields of view need to be checked per shift.
Who manufactures autofocus digital microscopes for semiconductor labs?
Yatherm Scientific manufactures and supplies the AF-202 autofocus digital microscope for semiconductor fabrication labs, electronics manufacturers, and research institutes, with OEM and ODM customization available for labs that need a configuration built to their own inspection workflow.
Is this microscope available through distributors and wholesalers?
Yes — Yatherm Scientific works with distributors and wholesale partners in multiple regions in addition to supplying labs and manufacturers directly. If you're inquiring as a potential distributor rather than an end user, mention that when you reach out so our team can route the conversation correctly.
What's the difference between an autofocus microscope and a confocal microscope for this kind of inspection?
Autofocus microscopy keeps a standard optical image sharp automatically as the sample surface varies in height — it's built for speed and throughput on relatively flat or gently varying surfaces like wafers and PCBs. Confocal microscopy instead builds a true 3D optical section by scanning multiple focal planes, which gives more depth information but runs slower — better suited to detailed 3D surface metrology than to high-throughput inline inspection.
Can the AF-202 be customized (OEM/ODM)?
Yes — customized support is available in both OEM and ODM formats, so labs can adapt the configuration, branding, or integration to their own inspection line rather than taking a fixed standard build.
What is the working distance of this microscope?
The AF-202 has a working distance of 90mm, giving enough clearance under the objective for handling wafers, PCBs, and other components without the lens interfering with the sample stage.
Can it inspect PCBs and FPCs, not just semiconductor wafers?
Yes — beyond wafer inspection, the AF-202 is used for PCB/FPC alignment checks, solder joint verification, and bonding quality inspection, alongside general IC and MEMS defect detection.
