Abstract
A compensating resistance adapter spans the distance from a mechanical point of contact of an electrical test probe and at least one signal testing point. The compensating resistance adapter has at least one transmission path extending longitudinally therewith. At least one compensating network is configured with the transmission path and positioned substantially near the probing end thereof. For preferred compensating resistance adapters, the at least one compensating network compensates for inductance caused by the conductive connector adapter. For preferred compensating resistance adapters, the at least one compensating network when used in combination with the electrical test probe is optimized to the signal testing point. Exemplary preferred compensating resistance adapters include a probing blade adapter, a twisted pair adapter, a Y-lead adapter, and a swivel pogo tip pair adapter.
