Abstract
A probe for measuring signals with a narrow contact pitch comprises an end section having a main tip member and a sub-tip member, each of which passes through one of two holes in a housing. The sub-tip member is electrically connected to the housing and the main-tip member is insulated from the housing by an insulation member. The sub-tip member is pivotally connected to the housing. The subtip member is asymmetric with respect to the pivot and therefore, its sharpened end can trace a circular orbit when the sub-tip member turns on its pivot. The distance between the two end sections of these tip members (that is, the contact pitch) can be set to a desired length by positioning sub-tip sharpened end section to any point on this orbit.
