PRODUCT PORTFOLIO CONTACT PROBES

Product catalog summary
Overview of Connectors: The document outlines various connectors used in radio frequency (RF) measurements, including GSC-Male, HSC-Male, SMA, SMB, and USB types. These connectors are crucial for establishing connections in RF applications.
Coaxial Probes for RF Measurements: A new generation of RF probes is introduced, featuring different mounting options such as flange, plug-in, and threaded. These probes are designed to minimize signal loss across a wide frequency band, with key parameters including S-parameters (S11, S21, S12, S22) that describe reflection and insertion losses.
Design and Matching: RF probes are coaxial and tailored to meet specific RF requirements. Proper impedance matching between the device under test (DUT) and the RF environment is essential to minimize signal loss. Frequency response charts are provided for better understanding.
Mounting Options: Various mounting options for RF probes are available, including threaded and flange types. Examples of mounting configurations for different probes like HF66 and HF60 are provided.
Connection Cables: The document details connection cables for different RF probes, specifying impedance, cutoff frequency, and standard lengths, which are crucial for maintaining signal integrity.
Long-life Test Connectors: FEINMETALL offers test connectors for common types like USB, RJ, and HDMI, designed for high contact cycles and easy maintenance to avoid damage to the DUT.
Contacts for Common Connector Types: Specifications for various connectors like RJ11, RJ45, USB Type C, and others are provided, including data rates, contact cycles, and current ratings.
Technical Specifications:
  • USB Type A: Max data rate of 4 Gbit/s, 50,000 contact cycles, 1.5 A current at 25°C, 9 poles.
  • HDMI 2.0: Max data rate of 14.4 Gbit/s, 50,000 contact cycles, 0.5 A current at 25°C, 19 poles.
  • F-Type for SAT/Loop: Max data rate of 300 kHz - 3 GHz, 50,000 contact cycles, 1.5 A current at 25°C, coaxial poles.
  • RCA (Chinch) audio/video: Max data rate of 500 kHz, 200,000 contact cycles, 1.5 A current at 25°C, coaxial poles.
  • USB 2.0 A: Max data rate of 480 Mbit/s, 200,000 contact cycles, 1.5 A current at 25°C, 4 poles.
  • HDMI 1.4: Max data rate of 8.16 Gbit/s, 50,000 contact cycles, 0.5 A current at 25°C, 19 poles.
Procedures for Mounting Test Connectors:
  • Align the lower and median levels of the test connector with the DUT.
  • Choose the appropriate test connector and holding device.
  • Loosen the retaining screw, insert the test connector into the DUT, retract slightly to prevent damage, and fix using a threaded pin.
  • Ensure sufficient space in the carrier plate for the test connector, maintaining at least 1 mm space.
  • Use two opposite threaded holes M3 on the carrier plate for fixing the holding device with screws M3x8 (not included).
Additional Information:
  • Feinmetall offers contact probes for board tests, wire harness tests, high current, limited space, coaxial applications, and fine pitch.
  • Feinmetall has subsidiaries and representations in Germany, Mexico, Singapore, China, USA, Taiwan, Czech Republic, and Tunisia.

PRODUCT PORTFOLIO CONTACT PROBES-3

COAXIAL PROBES FOR RADIO FREQUENCY MEASUREMENTS Design of RF-Probes Spring contact probes for RF-applications are coaxial probes. The inner and outer conductors are designed and dimensioned according the RF specific requirements. That means the signals within a wide frequency band are transmitted with a minimum loss. For evaluation of RF-probes various definitions and parameters are relevant. Two-Port Network The common two-port network describes the characteristics of possible transmission paths. These can be wires, radio transmissions or RF-contact probes. S-Parameters In radio frequency technology...

MOUNTING OF THE NEW RF PROBES Mounting Options For the new RF probe series HF66 and HF05 different mounting options are possible. Mounting example HF66 RF probe without flange, with plug-in connection for Mini SMP female Some probes can be threaded directly into the mounting plate. Some versions have a flange that is screwed to the mounting plate, this version allows a simple adjusting and contacting of the DUT. The drill hole for mounting needs to have a sufficient diameter to allow a movement of the probe. For mounting RF probes with flange drill holes for the centering pins, threaded holes...
