The MODEL 50 PICOPROBE® sets new standards in microwave probing performance. Benefiting from coaxial techniques, which have inherent low loss and low dispersion characteristics, the Model 50 Picoprobe®, with or without the bias T option, achieves an insertion loss of less than 0.8 db (typical) and a return loss of greater than 15 db (max.) over its frequency range.
With its individually spring loaded, Beryllium-Copper tips, the Model 50 Picoprobe® provides reliable contacts, even when probing non-planar structures. This reliable low resistance contact is one of the keys to providing highly repeatable measurements (-55 db) at V band frequencies. The Model 50 Picoprobe® also provides direct viewing of the probe tips for accurate positioning.
Any pitch (tip spacing) from 50 microns and up may be specified. The probe can be configured with Ground-Signal-Ground (G,S,G), Ground-Signal (G,S), or Signal-Ground (S,G) tip footprints. We recommend smaller pitches with a G,S,G footprint for best performance. |
