ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an apparatus for testing a device with a high frequency signal, such as an RF signal. The apparatus delivers a high frequency signal directly to a loadboard with a coaxial cable. The coaxial cable can deliver the signal to a location at or near the device on the loadboard. The cable can connect to the loadboard through a threaded connection. The other end of the cable can connect to a testing module or another cable. The apparatus can further comprise a section or housing between the circuit board and the testing module to provide support for the cables and their respective connections. The apparatus can further provide connections for both high frequency testing and low frequency testing.
