The Keysight Wedge technology provides
very reliable probing of a few channels
on 0.5 mm and 0.65 mm pitch QFPs. No
clear area is required around the device.
Each Wedge of the probe slides between
the legs of the QFP. The side of each
Wedge probe contacts the package legs.
An insulation core electrically isolates
the sides of each Wedge (see Figures 7.1
and 7.2). Various 3-signal, 8-signal, and
16-signal probes are available (see
Table 5).

Miscellaneous probing
accessories
The ferrite core assembly can be added to
the probe cable to suppress EMI and RFI
noise that can corrupt the measurement.
