ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for directly positioning a hand-held electrical test probe onto leads of a surface mounted integrated circuit, IC, device has a housing with a central bore therethrough for receiving the probing tip of the test probe, which is coupled to compensation circuitry in the probing head. One end of the housing which is normal to the central bore has at least four teeth extending therefrom defining slots for engaging the leads of the IC. The central bore is exposed in the central slot of the housing for exposing the probing tip therein for providing an electrical connection between one of the leads on the IC and the electrical circuitry of the probing head.
