Load balancing when deskewing a differential probe with a single-ended probe
When deskewing a differential probe with a single-ended probe and to ensure
accurate deskewing, an identical single ended probe must be installed onto the
deskew pin of opposite polarity to balance the load of the single probe.
1.
Install the single-ended probe (load balance probe) to the vacant pins. See
Figures 10 and 11 on page 11.

The load balance probe does not have to be connected to any test equipment.
