ZMA14 tip cable flex connect
The R&S
RT
‑
ZMA14 tip cable flex connect makes it easy to clamp and remove
connection onto solder-in flex tips soldered directly to the DUT. It supports the full
bandwidth of the probe amplifier. You can solder as many flex tips as needed to
your DUT and easily connect and reconnect different test points using the clamp
connector of the tip cable.
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
Measurements with MultiMode
In this configuration, you can measure single-ended, differential and common
mode signals without resoldering the tip cable.
1. Disconnect the flex tip from the R&S

NOTICE!
Use adhesive pads or low-temperature hot glue to protect your
probe accessories and DUT from damage.
Permanently solder the flex tips to the DUT.
3. Permanently solder the ground wires (GND) to the two ground vias at both
sides of the flex tips and to the DUT.
