Using the Probe
Extension Leads
If the length of the pins is not adequate for your measurement setup or if
you need to use the pincer or micro IC clips, the extension leads can be
placed over the pins as shown below. The probe comes with both 5 cm and
10 cm long extensions leads.
Figure 12 Extension Leads on Probe
Micro IC Clips and Pincer Clips
Use the micro IC and pincer clips to probe miniature IC and components.
These clips attach to the end of the extension leads. Squeeze the lever on
the micro IC clips to extend the grasping jaws. Push the back of the pincer
clips to extend their connectors.
DC Blocking Capacitor
Use the DC blocking capacitor to block out unwanted DC components on
the input signal.
