The N2885A PCB adapter kit is designed to solder into a printed circuit board (PCB) as test points to minimize ground inductance and maximize signal fidelity. The recommended layout is shown in the user’s manual that accompanied the N2870A Series passive probes).
The PCB socket is compatible with hand soldering and reflow processes. After soldering the socket – both the signal contact and ground contact – to the board, simply insert the probe. The PCB adapter is compatible with either rigid or spring-loaded probe tip of the N2870A Series passive probe.
The N2872A passive probe offers DC to 350 MHz and 10:1 attenuation factor to address a wide range of measurement needs.
Compact 2.5-mm probe head diameter, low input capacitance, and various fine-pitch probe tip accessories make the Keysight N2870A Series passive probes ideal for probing densely populated IC components or surface-mount devices used in today’s high-speed digital applications.
The sharp probe tip is spring loaded to help engineers keep the probe from slipping off the device under test. Insulating IC caps keep the small probe tip centered on the IC lead and keep it from shorting adjacent leads. Standard flat blade ground connector and self-adhesive copper ground pad help reduce ground inductance while offering easy ground access. Optional probe tip accessories provide specialized capabilities for demanding applications.
Compatible with Keysight InfiniiVision and Infiniium Series oscilloscopes with 1 MΩ input.
