Agilent Wedge Probe Adapters
• Secure connection to 0.5 mm and
0.65 mm TQFP and PQFP devices
• Won’t fall off, short against
adjacent legs, or degrade
signal quality
• Can be inserted while the
board is active
• 3, 8, and 16 signal versions
The Agilent Wedge Probe Adapter
provides a highly reliable,
mechanically non-invasive con-
nection to fine-pitch TQFP and
PQFP surface mount ICs.
Compressible dual conductors
inserted in the space between
adjacent IC pins conform to the
size and shape of each pin to
ensure tight contact. The redun-
dant physical connection created
by two contact points on each pin
of the IC and the short electrical
length of the probe adapter dra-
matically increase the reliability
of the electrical connection.
Because the Wedge does not latch
directly onto the IC and does not
require expansion beforehand
(unlike a clip) it can be inserted
while the board is active.
Once the Wedge is inserted you
can easily complete the connec-
tion to your scope. The Wedge
connects directly to the 1155A
and the 117XA family of low-mass
probes and the dual-lead adapter
provided with the 116XA passive
probe family.
For more information on how the
Wedge Probe Adapter works with
your Infiniium scope, please refer
