Keywords Controlled impedance, ECT, Measurement

ECT offers a new flying probe test system with the industry's first automated controlled impedance TDR(time domain reflectometry) system for measuring high frequency, matched impedance signals. The REFLEX™ option on The Edge prober makes single ended and differential meaurements easy, reliable and fast.

The REFLEX module enables automatic, highly accurate impedance tests. This automatic capability is essential in the world of high volume telecommunication, computer and network. It is designed to test traces on coupon cards as well as traces on the board itself. Its patent pending design enables accurate reflection measurement of each specified trace and then captures and reports all readings. REFLEX is compatible with several industry standard impedance measuring instruments. REFLEX software provides an easy to use interface and requires minimal operator intervention.
