ZIF‐Clip®ZCOverview
ZIF-Clip® standard headstages are analog headstages recommended for use with
probe impedance that range from 20 Kohm to 5 Mohm. They are designed to
connect directly to a PZ preamplifier/neurodigitizer but may be connected to an
RA16PA with the use of an adapter. Analog signal are buffered inside the headstage
and digitized on the preamplifier/neurodigitizer for transfer to a base station
processor, such as the RZ2 or RZ5.
By default, ground and reference are separate on all ZIF-Clip® headstages yielding
a differential configuration. Reference and ground may be tied together on the
headstage adapter or ZIF-Clip® microwire array for single-ended configurations.
The ZIF-Clip® headstage (Patent No. 7540752) features an innovative, hinged
headstage design that ensures quick, easy headstage connection with almost no
insertion force applied to the subject. ZIF-Clip® headstage contacts seat inside the
probe array and snap in place, firmly locking the headstage and probe with very little
applied pressure. These self-aligning headstages provide long lasting low insertion
performance for a variety of channel number and electrode configurations. An
aluminum finish provides increased durability.
