Picoprobe
Since 1980, GGB Industries, the originator of the Picoprobe® line of microwave and oscilloscope probes, has served the on-wafer probing needs of the worldwide semiconductor industry, beginning with a line of high impedance troubleshooting probes for diagnostic studies of the internal workings of complex logic and memory chips. In 1988, GGB Industries, Inc., revolutionized on-wafer microwave probing with a new patented coaxial microwave probe having 50 ohm coplanar flexible tips. The introduction of a high-performance W-band millimeter wave probe in 1992 established GGB Industries, Inc., as the world leader in microwave probes.

Solid Tungsten Probe Tips
ST Series
The ST SERIESof probe tips, available from GGB Industries, Inc., are precision crafted from a 0.020 inch (0.51mm) diameter solid tungsten shaft that is electrochemically sharpened to a specified point. These durable, 1.5 inch long solid tungsten shaft probe tips are for use in most standard micropositioners when probing an integrated circuit, pad, or line. A variety of radius point sizes from 0.5 microns to 10 microns are available to accommodate any probing need.

10
PICOPROBE® MODEL 10 is a multipurpose, high speed, passive probe which can be used for driving as well as receiving signals. The Model 10 consists of a one meter length of flexible 50 ohm coaxial cable terminated by a carefully trimmed SMA on one end and by a miniature, high speed 50 ohm connector, specially developed to receive Model 10 replaceable coaxial probe tips, on the other. The 50 ohm coaxial cable was custom designed for Model 10 to be high speed, yet very flexible, so that moving the cable would not disturb the probe points.

High Impedance Active Probes
7
Designed as a companion probe to Models 12C and 18C for driving integrated circuit lines so the Model 12C and 18C can be used to measure the response of adjacent nodes. The Model 7 consists of a flexible 6 foot, 50 ohm coaxial cable accurately terminated to 50 ohms in order to avoid undesirable reflections. A special miniature connector receives replacement coaxial probe tips that provide a shielded environment to within 3 mm of the fine tungsten probe point, thus minimizing capacitive coupling to other parts of the circuit. The replaceable coaxial probe tips are offered in various point sizes and can also be bent to any shape in order to accommodate a variety of probing geometries.
