8. Line up the pin A1 indicator on the probe adapter board with the pin A1
indicator on your SUT.
9. Place the probe adapter onto the SUT as shown in Figure 1–3.
NOTE
. You might need to stack one or more replacement sockets between the SUT
and the probe adapter to provide sufficient vertical clearance from adjacent
components. However, keep in mind that this might increase loading, which can
reduce the electrical performance of your probe adapter.
