PCB Adapter Kit
The PCB Adapter Kit is not included in the Standard
Accessories. However, the PCB Adapter Kit does not
include its own documentation so its features will be
documented in this User’s Guide. The PCB Adapter
sockets are designed to solder into a printed circuit
board (PCB) as test points to minimize ground inductance and maximize signal
fidelity.
The recommended PCB layout is shown in
Figure 7
. The PCB socket is compatible
with hand soldering and reflow processes. After soldering the socket - both the sig-
nal contact and ground contact - to the board, simply insert the probe. The PCB
adapter is compatible with either the rigid or spring-loaded probe tip.
