MEGATRACE CURVE TRACER
Our largest curve tracer built for devices and packages with large pin counts, up to 2160 pins.
MegaTrace System Components
Each curve trace model has a different system setup based on your device’s pin count. For the MegaTrace, the model’s system is comprised of a few separate pieces.
Full Curve Trace System
MegaTrace comprises a cart that contains the test chassis, PC monitor, drive bus box, and a test interface that fits your device and testing needs. Typically, the MegaTrace has an OctoPogo interface with device-specific OctoPogo daughtercards.
MegaTrace Load Board Interface
The OctoPogo interface and DUT boards are what’s typically used with the MegaTrace due to its flexibility in pin count and use of daughtercards.
DUT Boards
DUT boards usually come in the shape of an OctoPogo daughter card or extended OctoPogo DUT board in use with the classic OctoPogo interface. This is the primary configuration for most users of the MegaTrace.
MegaTrace Automated Curve Tracer
MegaTrace curve tracer is designed for high pin count devices. MegaTrace typically supports pin counts greater than 625 up to 2160 pins, with 1080 pins being popular. It utilizes the same applications as the smaller models.
The cart form allows for movement around the lab, and custom configurations can be implemented. Each MegaTrace is built with an LCD monitor, controller running essential DataTrace Analysis, and MultiTrace software on the most recent version of Windows.
The MegaTrace is an automated curve tracer used for powered curve tracing, multiple testing configurations, and capabilities. See the curve trace configuration page to learn more.

MegaTrace DUT Boards
Below are the supporting board solutions to the different test fixtures. Depending on the fixture or interface you choose above, DUT boards and compatibility vary. Custom compatibility fixtures are available.
OctoPogo Daughter Cards
Octopogo Daughter Cards (ODC) are built to support sockets for any device. Standard ODCs are limited to 2.25-inch sockets maximum and 29mm sized packages. For larger packages, an extended Octopogo is required.
Extended OctoPogo DUT Board
Extended Octopogo Series supports any socket size ODC can’t.
PGA-625 ZIF Socket
PGA-625 ZIF socket on an Octopogo is wired to be compatible with pin maps from a standard PGA-625 fixture. This makes migrating to higher pin counts easy and allows you to reuse old adapters while taking advantage of the native Octopogo™ designs.
Yamaichi Connector Versions
RTI has two versions of this fixture that’s compatible with the elastomer interface. One version supports 7 cables (648 pins). The other supports 23 cables (2160 pins).
