Flex adapter, solder-in
The flex adapter is particularly well suited for
creating solid contact with test points that are
hard to reach (e.g. between two inserted
boards). The two wires at the tip of the flexible
line are soldered to the contact points. The
pins on the other end of the adapter are inser-
ted in the signal receptacles of the probe.
The flex adapter reduces the probe rise time,
but is designed to ensure optimum settling.
The lines on the flex adapter are implemented
as a twisted pair to minimize unwanted cou-
pling. Flex adapters are preferred over leads
or clips.
Two different flex adapters are included: 4 cm
(1.6 in) and 10 cm (3.9 in).
Distance range: 0 mm to 12 mm (0 mil to 470
mil)
Do
not
use the flex adapter at voltages beyond
±
30 V.
Flex adapter, square pin
The flex adapter is used for plugging the probe
onto pin strips with a pitch of 2.54 mm (100
mil) that are hard to reach (e.g. between two
inserted boards). The pins on the other end of
the adapter are inserted in the signal recepta-
cles of the probe. The flexible line makes it
possible to connect two or more probes to
adjacent pins without the probes blocking each
other.
The flex adapter reduces the probe rise time,
but is designed to ensure optimum settling.
The conductors on the flex adapter are imple-
mented as a twisted pair to minimize unwan-
ted coupling. Flex adapters are preferred over
leads or clips.
Two different flex adapters are included: 4 cm
(1.6 in) and 10 cm (3.9 in).
Distance range: 2.54 mm (100 mil)
Do
not
use the flex adapter at voltages beyond
±
30 V.
