Abstract: An interconnect assembly for evaluating a probe measurement network includes a base, respective inner and outer probing areas in mutually coplanar relationship on the upper face of the base, a reference junction, and a high-frequency transmission structure connecting the probing areas and the reference junction so that high-frequency signals can be uniformly transferred therebetween. A preferred method for evaluating the signal channels of the network includes connecting a reference unit to the reference junction and successively positioning each device-probing end that corresponds to a signal channel of interest on the inner probing area.

Abstract: A parallel indexer having a housing, an input shaft rotatably mounted in said housing, an output shaft rotatably mounted in said housing and extending exteriorly thereof, said input shaft and output shaft being arranged parallel to each other, said output shaft having a driven surface which mounts the plurality of roller gear drives thereon, and which are driven by at least one cam mounted upon the input shaft, said driven surface being normally fixed to the output shaft, and having a torque limiter arranged intermediate thereof and which when excessive torque is encountered, provides for disengagement between the driven surface and the output shaft, to disconnect the output for the parallel indexer.
