TP150
PRECISION POSITIONER
TP150 is designed to hold rugged PacketMicro probes. It allows a user to probe printed circuit boards with small geometry precisely. Its high-precision XYZ stage and long probe arm with planarization (θ) control make it ideal for probing printed-circuit boards in a wide range of RF and signal-integrity measurements.
Universal adapter
Holds most scope probes
Ease of control
Quickly reach points of interest
Precise Design
Ensure accurate, repeatable measurements
HIGHLIGHTS
- Easy-to-manipulate probe positioner for hands-free measurement
- High-precision XYZ-stage and Θ control allow probes to reach test points accurately and firmly
- Front probe arm can be reversed to probe extra tall circuit boards or boards with components on both sides
