You're testing your PCB wrong! | PicoBYTE #8

When probing a signal using an oscilloscope, the standard choice of equipment is a probe with a crocodile clip. But this long ground clip can add extra inductive ringing to an otherwise fast edge signal.

This video shows how to reduce this ringing when probing using a tool you might already have, and how much of an effect this can have on a fast edge signal.
