ABSTRACT:
A differential test probe for a printed wiring board test system includes a probe body having a proximal end and a distal end. Each of a plurality of coaxial cables extending from the proximal end to the distal end. The plurality of coaxial cables each includes a center conductor having an axial aperture at the distal end. The differential test probe also includes a plurality of signal pins that are each mounted in the axial aperture of the center conductor of one of the plurality of coaxial cables to electrically couple the signal pin to the center conductor. A plurality of ground pins are coupled to the probe body and selectively arranged relative to the plurality of signal pins to provide multiple signal to ground paths between the plurality signal pins and the plurality ground pins.
