Low-inductance grounding
Use a ground plane on the package to make
probing the package easier, and to avoid
adding unnecessary ground lead length and
distortion:
1.
Attach a small piece of copper clad on top
of the package.
2.
Connect the copper clad to the package
ground connection.
3.
Use the low-inductance ground lead to
keep the ground lead length as short as
possible.
Quick tip
This method is very useful when making many
measurements on the same package.
