N5441A Infiniimax Iii Solder-In Probe Head - Keysight N2800A User Manual

N5441A InfiniiMax III Solder-in Probe Head

The N5441A InfiniiMax III solder-in probe head is an economical semi-permanent
connection that provides up to 16 GHz of system bandwidth. The span of the leads can be
adjusted from 5 mil - 80 mil (0.127 mm - 2 mm).
The N5441A probe head can be used with the N5450B InfiniiMax extreme temperature
extension cable. This is the only InfiniiMax III probe head that can withstand the –55°C to
+150°C extreme temperature range (for up to 250 test cycles).
When using the N5450B extension cable, do not subject the InfiniiMax III probe amplifier or

probe head (other than the N5441A solder-in probe head) to extreme temperatures.

Soldering the Probe Head to the DUT
To solder the probe head to your DUT, complete the following steps. The procedure is very
similar to that for the ZIF probe tips used with the N5439A probe head.
1 Position the probe head near the location on the DUT where you want to solder the probe.
2 Add strain relieve for the probe head as described in
Heads"
3 Apply flux to your target leads as shown in
