Grounds
2.54 mm Square Pin Adaptor The 2.54 mm square pin adaptor fits into the
ground socket of the ZS4000 probe for easy
connection to standard 2.54 mm square pin
spacing on a circuit board.
Offset Ground The Offset Ground is designed to be attached to
either socket of the probe head. The Offset
Ground connects to the ground socket and wraps
around the probe head, making it possible to
probe a signal and ground that are extremely close
together. The short length provides the highest
quality grounding for high frequency applications.
Narrow Ground Blade and
Copper Pad The Narrow Ground Blade and Copper Pad
together are the best grounding solution for
probing an IC. The Narrow Ground Blade is
designed to provide a short, low inductance
ground path. The Copper Pad is adhesive backed
to stick to the top of an IC, and can then be
soldered to the IC ground.
Wide Ground Blade The Wide Ground Blade is ideal for use when the
best quality ground is needed. The wide blade
offers the minimal inductance compared to the
narrow ground blade.
Pogo Ground Lead The Pogo Ground Lead allows flexibility for
bending and positioning the ground lead onto
hard-to -reach test points, while maintaining z-axis
compliance.
