Abstract
A test probe tip constructed substantially from resistive material. The resistive material is made of resistive conducting material substantially enclosed in and dispersed throughout encapsulating material. The test probe tip has a probing end for probing electronic circuitry and a connection end for interfacing with a probing head. The resistive conducting material forms at least one path through the encapsulating material from the probing end to the connection end. The resistive conducting material may be a plurality of longitudinally-extending resistive/conductive members or a plurality of particulate resistive/conductive members.
