Abstract:
A high-frequency testing probe having a probe substrate and at least two probe tips. The probe substrate is a printed circuit board and the probe tips are coupled to and extend outward from the printed circuit board. The first and second probe tips are each communicatively coupled to respective first and second probe connectors through respective first and second conducting traces disposed upon the printed circuit board. The probe connectors are configured to couple the testing probe to at least one of a high-frequency vector network analyzer and a high-frequency time domain reflectometer. The probe tips translate along their respective central longitudinal axes through respective adjustable couplings to modify respective distances the probe tips extend outward from the printed circuit board.
