Abstract
A thermal imaging device includes an optical module gathering infrared radiation of a circuit board and correspondingly providing infrared light, a photo sensor converting the infrared light into a first electrical signal, a processor, and a thermal imaging control system having one or more programs stored in a storage and executed by the processor. The system includes an image processing unit converting the first electrical signal into a thermal image signal, a comparing unit comparing the thermal image signal with circuit diagram of the circuit board to determine at least one abnormal temperature element, and a display control unit controlling a screen to display a thermal image of the circuit board together with a label comprising at least one name of the at least one abnormal temperature element on the screen.
