The Prizmatix High Power Microscope-LED (Mic-LED) is an affordable quality LED light source for fluorescence excitation in upright and inverted fluorescence microscopes.

The LED includes a built-in adjustable collimator with a 22mm beam and mounts directly to the epi-fluorescence microscope port. The XY adjust screws enable precise alignment of the LED to the microscope light path while the Z adjust ensures uniform coverage of the entire field of view.

The Mic-LED is compatible with the Prizmatix modular Optibock system and can be expanded into a Multi-LED system at any time. The multi wavelength system can mix any of Prizmatix’s collimated LEDs: Mic-LED, UHP-Mic-LED or UHP-T LEDs.

The BLCC-04 controller’s advanced electronics include a low noise (<0.03% RMS) LED driver, fast TTL (50kHz) switching, a precision ten turn dial and opto-isolated TTL and analog inputs for power control. The optional USB interface enables computer control via popular software such as uManager, Metamorph and Labview. API is available from Prizmatix. 

Each Mic-LED is shipped with a serial-number specific test report providing information on total beam power and emission spectrum.

For more demanding applications, check the Prizmatix UHP-T-EP LED system for up to 10x more power.
