Customizable
ground lead
Customizable ground lead
.
This ground lead
wire can be bent or cut shorter.
NOTE
: To ease insertion into the ground socket
of the probe, cut the tip of this ground lead wire at
a 30 to 60 degree angle.
To maintain signal fidelity while probing, use as
short a ground path as possible. Refer to page 14
for more grounding information.
Pogo pin
Low-inductance ground pogo pin.
Use the
low-inductance ground pogo pin to substantially
reduce ground lead inductance. Because the
pogo pin simply touches the ground reference,
you can easily move the probe to different points
on the circuit under test.
To attach, press the pogo pin into the probe head
ground socket.
When selecting the grounding connection,
maintain as short a ground path as possible.
Refer to page 14 for more information.
Signal-ground
adapter
Signal-ground adapter. The signal-ground
adapter is ideal for use with signal/ground pairs
on 0.100 inch header pins.
Attach the signal-ground adapter by gently
pressing it into the ground socket on the probe
head.
Be sure to use the stabilization notch whenever
possible to avoid slipping and damaging the
probe or circuitry under test.
