Problem-free probing
The Agilent wedge probe adapter elimi-
nates many of the frustrations associated
with probing surface mount components.
If you’ve ever accidentally shorted IC pins
together, experienced electrical and/or
mechanical problems with soldering small
wires onto leads, or gotten frustrated jug-
gling multiple probes while you’re trying
to operate your scope, the Wedge was
designed with you in mind.
Make the inaccessible
accessible
When you use the Wedge, you don’t have
to worry about shorting IC pins together
on a delicate component–or worse yet,
on an irreplaceable prototype. The Wedge
is easy to insert and it stays put. There’s
no need to solder small wires onto leads.
The Wedge is mechanically non-invasive,
so you won’t damage the legs of the IC.
Instead, you’ll have easy access to hard-
to-reach components.

Operating characteristics
Electrical reliability
The Wedge makes two contact points with
each leg of the IC. This redundant physical
connection increases the electrical reliability
of the connection. Also the Wedge’s low
capacitance and inductance provides superior
performance to many other alternatives.
The Wedge probe adapter connects directly
to 1145A/1155A active probes and the dual
lead adapter provided with the 1160A-65A
passive probe family and N2877A/N2879A
accessory kits for use with N287xA Series
passive probes.
IC clip kits
As an inexpensive solution for probing fine-
pitch ICs, the 10072A SMT Kit includes 10 IC
clips and 2 dual-lead adapters that connect
the clips directly to 10070-family probes.
The 10075A 0.5-mm IC clip kit is ideal for
connecting to IC’s as fine as
0.5 mm. The clip body allows many clips to
be mounted side-by-side. The kit includes
four 0.5-mm IC clips and two dual-lead
adapters that connect the IC clips directly to
10070-family probes.
