Hello everyone! Thanks for all the great responses. I looks like it will boil down to creating something own. @Florian: Excellent idea with the DIL socket! I already thought about putting together something own, but those sockets for the tip connection didn't come to my mind. Other probes suitab

Imho , Are U sure U need any particular measurement point device for your pcb Philipp? At those frequencies U mention U just need a simple pin and a common ground point at your card to make the measurement. In my days as an RF repair engineer i hooked my probe at those points with my integrated

It is possible to hold probe a little bit above the point, amplitude will however not be accurate. Rugoski coil is also useful for high frequency measurements of currents but not low frequency or DC. Nicklas Karlsson On Tue, 17 Mar 2015 22:21:45 +0100 Philipp Burch wrote: > Hi everyone, >

Hi everyone, please excuse this question very unrelated to LinuxCNC, but I know that here are quite some people around who are familiar with scopes and high-frequency measurements. Some who like Tek and some who don't ;) Anyway, I've got a project where I need to measure signals with frequencies
