Flex Probe Station and Rugged Gigahertz Probes for PCB Testing

    SANTA CLARA, CA, January 24, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- PacketMicro announces new 18-GHz probes and benchtop "Flex Probe Station" for probing motherboard and daughter cards in horizontal and vertical orientations simultaneously. In addition, PacketMicro introduces "Power Integrity Probing in a Box" for milliohm impedance measurements, which includes RProbes, positioners, and microscope. For power-integrity measurements, durable RProbe performs comparably as microprobe.

"Constant changing in the configuration of GHz motherboard and daughter cards makes the signal integrity testing of the overall system difficult," said Dr. Richard Zai, PacketMicro CTO. "The stackable Flex Probe Station allows engineers to reconfigure the test setup for challenging board orientation quickly." Both microprobes and rugged RProbes can be used with the Flex Probe Station.

"Power Integrity Probing in a Box" is specifically created to meet the rising demand for power integrity testing of complex, high-speed boards. The user-friendly out-of-box experience makes power integrity testing easy. Please stop by Booth #850 at DesignCon 2015 held at Santa Clara Convention Center, Santa Clara, California on January 28 - 29, for product demonstration.
