Abstract
According to some embodiments, a signal line associated with a printed circuit board is provided. In addition, a conductive trace is electrically connected to a portion of the signal line. At least a portion of the conductive trace may be offset from the signal line, and a dielectric layer may be provided between the signal line and the conductive trace to enhance electromagnetic coupling between them. As a result a hybrid resistance and electromagnetic coupling probe may be provided.
