The R&S
RT-ZMA10 tip cable solder-in is well
suited for creating solid contact with test points
that are hard to reach (e.g. IC pins).
Bandwidth: up to 16 GHz
MultiMode compatible
Length: 15 cm
Variable span range of the leads: 0 mm to
5
mm (0 mil to 200 mil).
Temperature range: -30
°C to +80
°C
For measurements with MultiMode functional-
ity, solder both signal leads (P,N) in front and
both ground wires (GND) at the outside of the
tip board to the DUT. In this configuration, you
can measure single-ended, differential and
common mode signals without resoldering the
tip cable.
If you want to use the DM Mode only for differ-
ential measurements, you do not have to sol-
der the ground wires (GND). Leave ground
vias open and only solder both signal leads
(P,N) to your DUT.
Always keep soldered leads as short as possi-
ble for best performance and signal integrity
Risk of damaging the probe due to excess heat
Do not leave the soldering iron in contact with the probe tip for more than a
few seconds at a time. Excess heat may damage the probe.
