Ground pin, pogo
The spring-loaded ground pin allows handheld
probing. Because this ground pin compen-
sates for minor unevenness and movements, it
can establish a firm contact with the test point.
It fits into the ground socket of the probe head.
The distance to the signal pin can be varied by
turning the ground pin.
Distance range: 0
mm
to
10
mm
(0
mil
to
400
mil)
Ground pin, solderable, offset
The rigid ground pin is soldered to a test point
on the DUT and provides a reliable and per-
manent connection to the DUT.
To protect the solder joint from excessive
mechanical stress, stabilize the soldered
probe, for example, with adhesive tape or
probe positioner.
The distance to the signal pin can be varied by
turning the ground pin.
Distance range:
2.54 mm to 8 mm (100 mil to 315 mil)
