Dear geda users, I know it is off topic but I guess it is somehow related to PCB and many of you face the same problem or found already a solution. I am looking for a good set of micro probes to address single pins of ICs or other SMD components on a PCB. I saw some kit which looks very promising but a bit pricey [1] however, I'm still unsure about which kind of systems exist and what might be considered as good and what is actually not worse the money. Actually, I am looking for something to contact single legs of SMD-packed ICs for debugging and testing purpose. I tried a very cheap clamps [2], however, they are not really good for my purpose and the clamps are weak and inaccurate. Most probably o.k. for the price but I am looking for something more reliable and precise.
I would welcome any suggestions or ideas. Please consider that I have to order them maybe from a vendor with an international delivery service or even better a Japanese branch or reseller.
