I try to avoid probing DDR signals whenever possible but if I have to these work wonders even on vertical boards using the vias as signal contact points. You have to get the adapters for your scope probe model ? obviously the default probe tip they sell is good for DC only! http://www.agdevices.com/pages/product/qp/qpmain.html Of course it is extremely difficult to simultaneously ground the 1" scope probe ground. However, I have done tests comparing the 1" ground, 2" and 3" ground to a nearby soldered post @ 200 Mhz and I did not see a large difference in signal quality for my purposes. Of course I highly recommend that you perform your own tests if you use this method.

I am facing issue in probing the signals on SODIMM as the via's are very small and moreover it becomes difficult to hold the probes on these vias. In my attempt I have used some wire straps with Damp Resistors and soldered them on the vias.But just want to understand if there is some other better way to do this.
