Neural Probes · A-Series (Polytrode & Tetrode)
Single-Shank 16-Channel Probe, 5 mm
Sites clustered rather than spread — polytrode and tetrode groups a sorter can separate
16-channel silicon probe — a single shank carrying poly2 sites (177 µm², 25 µm pitch) on 5 mm shank. Sites in close columns or clusters of four on the shank, for single-unit isolation and current-source density analysis. Shank length suits mouse and rat preparations.
