Connecting the Analysis Probe to the Target
System
This section explains how to connect the HP E2480A analysis probe to
the target system. Connecting the analysis probe to the target system
consists of the following steps.
Note that there are separate instructions for the different QFP
packages. The instructions in this manual are only an overview. Use
the documentation included with your probe adapter for detailed
connecting procedures.
• Turn off the target system.
• Turn off the logic analyzer (unless you are using an HP 16600/16700A logic
analysis system).
• Connect the transition board to the analysis probe.
• Connect analysis probe/transition board to the probe adapter.
• Connect the probe adapter to the target system.
The remainder of this section describes these general steps in more
detail.
Protect Your Equipment
The analysis probe socket assembly pins are covered for shipment
with a conductive foam wafer or conductive plastic pin protector.
This is done to protect the delicate gold-plated pins from damage
due to impact. When you're not using the analysis probe, protect
the socket assembly pins from damage by covering them with the
pin protector.
