Abstract
A novel high frequency electrical probe comprising: A blade-like active body member adapted to be supported at one end with its major plane at substantially 90.degree. to a circuit to which contact is to be made; The other end of said body member formed to have a generally pointed edge to serve as a contact point to be abutted against the circuit; On both sides of said active body member, elements which are approximately coextensive with said body member, but having either no contact points, or pointed edges which abut said circuit at points slightly displaced from the contact point of said active body member.

A novel high frequency electrical probe comprising:
- a blade-like active body member adapted to be supported at one end with its major plane at substantially 90.degree. to a circuit to which contact is to be made;
- the other end of said body member formed to have a generally pointed edge to serve as a contact point to be abutted against the circuit;
- on both sides of said active body member, ground contacts which are approximately coextensive with said body member, but having pointed edges which abut said circuit at points slightly displaced from the contact point of said active body member.
A novel high frequency electrical probe comprising:
- a blade-like active body member having an electrically conductive region connected to a coaxial cable, adapted to be supported at one end with its major plane at substantially 90.degree. to a circuit to which contact is to be made;
- the other end of said body member formed to have a generally pointed edge coinciding with an edge of said electrically conductive region to serve as a contact point to be abutted against the circuit;
- on both sides of said active body member, ground contacts which are approximately coextensive with said body member, but having pointed edges which abut said circuit at points slightly displaced from the contact point of said active body member;
- said active body member including a flared portion in said conductive region adjacent said coaxial cable to provide uniformity of impedance.
