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).
- 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
More Product Information
The low frequency tuners are a unique product technology using MPT algorithms for low frequency wideband tuning. Three or more cascaded tuning sections use series transmission cables and parallel rotary capacitors.
The length of the cables and number of tuning sections are optimized for maximum tuning range over a given bandwidth. HLFT tuners use 6 tuning sections allowing second harmonic frequency tuning.
