how to open up the asi120mm

calypsob

I am curious about peltier cooling the asi120mm and I was wondering how you remove the circuit board form the aluminum housing? The guide port and usb port prevent you from removing the main board. Can anyone share advise on how to remove the circuit board without damaging the usb or guide port? Thanks

Just tried again, still no luck. It must have been some amount of trickery to get this unit in there without breaking the usb or guide port.

you cannot get out the PCB board except you unsolder the ST4 port.

you don't need to open it if you want to add a cooler

the thermal putty has been already put to the back of the sensor
