• Input capacitance : 350 fF (differential), 520 fF (single-ended)
• Tungsten probing wire shaft diameter: 22 microns
• Point radius : <0.1 micron
• 100 mil long tungsten wires
• The N2884A InfiniiMax differential fine-wire probing tip is a high fidelity, high bandwidth solution for probing an active IC. It is targeted at R&D and test engineers using an oscilloscope for debugging and testing ICs. The N2884A provides an innovative differential probing approach that is unmatched by any competitors in the market.
• Leveraging Keysight’s low-cost ZIF probe head technology, the N2884A is designed to offer you a flat frequency response over the entire 12 GHz bandwidth specification, which eliminates the distortion and loading that affect probes with in-band resonance. Unlike other market solutions which measure a voltage versus some ground far away from the probe point, the N2884A measures a voltage versus an adjacent local ground (or other node) on the DUT. This results in greater rejection of common mode noise and superior signal integrity in measurement.
• The N2884A comes with a probe arm and a set of 5 probe tips. The probe arm is compatible with the Wentworth Laboratories micropositioner as shown in the picture. You can either order it directly from Wentworth Laboratories – www.wentworthlabs.com.
• or you can order it from Keysight. If you order it through Keysight, you must order the following two parts:
• N2884-64702 (Wentworth 2026-90409 PVX 400-M: Manual Linear Manipulator Magnetic Base)
• N2884-64703 (Wentworth 5-00-4711 Short Nose Articulated Short Arm Front)
