2. InfiniiMax III Probe Heads
N5439A InfiniiMax III ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) Probe Head
After the probe head is connected to the soldered ZIF tip, it should look
similar to the following:

NOTE Please note in the solder procedure that you were instructed to have the gold traces
on the ZIF tip facing up. This is so it will properly mate with the ZIF probe head. The
gold traces on the tips should be on the same side as the lever.
NOTE You will get more repeatable results if you orient your connection perpendicular to
your device as shown in Figure 29 .

perpendicular angle than shown in Figure 28
NOTE You can use tweezers to actuate the lever in tight places.
To then move the probe head to a different tip, press the lever and remove
the ZIF probe head from the ZIF tip (the ZIF tip will remain soldered to the
DUT). Then simply connect the ZIF head to another ZIF tip at a different
location on the DUT.
