Tektronix Surface Mount Device Interconnects


The increasing use of surface mount technology (SMT) brings many benefits to electronic circuit board (ECB) design and manufacture. Among these are increased circuit density, increased product reliability and lower assembly costs.

Troubleshooting and device interconnection, however, have become more difficult due to decreased device size, tighter lead spacing and increased ECB densities. Tektronix offers several surface mount device (SMD) interconnects to simplify SMT probing.

The Tektronix SMK4 Micro KlipChip Adapter is an interface device which can attach to fine-pitch IC leads similar to the SMG50. The difference between the SMK4 and the SMG50 is the size. The SMK4 can be used to attach to PQFP packages up to a pitch of 0.5 mm which is five times smaller than the SMG50.

The Tektronix SMG50 KlipChip Adapter is an interface device for attachment of logic and analog probes to today's SMDs, DIPs and discrete components. The SMT KlipChip adapter is capable of attaching to components with maximum lead diameters of 0.095 inches and stackable on lead centers of 0.050 inches. Dual sided 0.025 inch lead contacts allow this grabber to be used in multiple signal insertion/acquisition.

The Tektronix SureFoot adapter is an integral probe tip and miniature guide that enables fault-free "hands-on" probing of fine-pitch SMD packages. Guided by the IC's leads, the SureFoot adapter's miniature plastic tines align the probe before electrical contact is made. The tines also form a shield between IC leads, preventing the probe tip from shorting adjacent pins.

The Tektronix datasheet provides an overview of all these products. Specific selection guides are also included on the individual product pages
