FormFactor - Cascade FPC Probe - Rugged, deep reach RF probing for modules and circuit boards
- DC-40 GHz bandwidth
- 10 ps rise time
- Low insertion and return loss
- 2 mils of tip-to-tip compliance
- High probing angle and clearance
The FPC probe is a high frequency 50 ohm coaxial probe that offers a signal line with either one or two low-inductance fixed-pitch ground contacts. The probe tip structure is lithographically defined for unsurpassed impedance control, preserving the highest integrity possible when launching and receiving signals from SMT boards, hybrids and multi-chip modules(MCM).
Advantages
- Maintains 50-ohm environment which allows accurate high-frequency measurement of microelectronic modules
- Compliant tips allow probing of non-planar structures
- BeCu tips provide longer probing life and reduce probe damage
- Access contacts close to components, module walls, or other obstructions
