IC Footprint Probe

Faster Signal Path Probing at Tighter Densities

Ardent’s ICFP offers 50 ohm access to IC contact pads and signal paths on an IC circuit footprint, this solution is a simple to manipulate, cost effective and time saving alternative to expensive X-Y tables and fragile planar probes for Engineers who may need to probe multiple signals at once.

With ICFP technology, test engineers and reference design engineers can implement the shortest, fastest, compression mount connector technology on the planet to probe multiple signals simultaneously.

Key Benefits
