tion Manual
Connecting to the Serial Analyzer Module
Refer to the illustration on the back of these instructions as you
perform the following steps:
1. Plug the signal connector into the module and tighten the
hold-down screws.
2. Plug the Power Adapter into the module and tighten the
hold-down screws.
3. Plug the power connector into the Power Adapter.
4. Refer to the detailed instructions that follow to connect
the solder tip to the probe.
5. Refer to the detailed instructions that follow to connect
the solder tip to your circuit.
Connecting to the Probe Head
The probe body and tip cable ends are keyed to ensure correct
installation. Refer to the illustrations that follow:
1. Orient the probe body with the + and – inputs on top, as
shown.
2. Align the tip cable lead with the red band to the + input.
4. Attach tip tape to the bottom of the tip.
5. Clean out the tip vias with a solder-wicking material if you
are reusing the tip. Thread the wires through the tip.
6. Press the tip to the circuit board and quickly solder the
wires to the t
as possible.
7. Clip off the excess wire from all of the solder joints.
ip. Keep all finished wire lengths as short

ConnectingtotheCircuit
Use the following steps to solder the tip to your circuit.
NOTE. This tip is very small and must be handled carefully.
The following procedures describe the proper techniques for
using the tip.
1. Identify a location where the tip can be placed, soldered,
and secured to your circuit. You can work with long wires
(~1 inch), but keep the finished wire lengths of the signal
and ground connections as short as possible.
2. Lay the wires against a c ircuit board pad, trace, or other
conductive feature. (If vias or through-holes are very
close, you can thread the wires through them.)
3. Solder the wires to your circuit.
8. Push the end of the tip into the probe head until it seats in

9. For a secure mechanical connection, use double-sided tape
or hot glue to secure the tip to your circuit.
10. Secure the probe to the circuit board with tape or
hook-and-loop strips.

Overview
The P6701SD Probe connects to the serial analyzer module
through an 8-pin signal connector and a 2-pin power cable.
Two of the 8 signal connector pins are used for the + and –
signals of the probe as shipped. The signal connector can
accommodate up to four probes; see your P67xx Series Serial
Analyzer Probes Design Guide & Instruction Manual for
details on adding probes to the signal connector.
The 2-pin power cable connects to the Power Adapter, which

plugs i
