Feature/Accessory Description
Customizable
ground lead
Customizable ground lead. You can bend or
shorten this ground lead wire.
NOTE: To ease insertion into the ground socket
of the probe, cut the tip of this ground lead wire at
a 30 to 60 degree angle.
To maintain signal fidelity while probing, use as
short a ground path as possible. Refer to page 21
for more grounding information.
Tektronix part number: 196--3482--XX (pkg of 5)
Right
angle
adapter
Adapter spring. Use the adapter spring for
low-profile probing of 0.025 inch square pins.
The adapter spring allows the probe to lie at a
right-angle (flat against a circuit board). This
enables probing in vertical circuits, such as
computer or communications backplanes, or in
tight areas, such as between circuit cards.
The adapter can be used directly with the probe
head or attached to a Y-lead adapter or ground
lead.
The adapter is attached by pushing the tip into
the probe tip socket until it is seated. The adapter
spring can be easily removed by hand.
