Abstract:
A signal transfer device for transferring an electrical signal from a test fixture such as a printed circuit board to a device under test. The signal transfer device is mounted beneath a probe plate and includes a spring-loaded transfer element for contacting a test pad on the test fixture. Through contact by the transfer element, an electrical signal is transferred from the test pad to a probe receptacle in the probe plate, which is wire wrapped to another probe receptacle in the probe plate for use in providing the electrical signal to the device under test.
