Highest bandwidth, lowest probe loading passive probes

Passive voltage probes ship standard with most oscilloscopes and provide a low cost, general purpose probing solution. Generally, these probes lack the performance of an active voltage probe but provide the ruggedness and wide dynamic range suitable for visualizing signals over a broad range of applications. Tektronix has released a new class of passive probes that redefine performance in the passive probe product category.

Tektronix new class of passive probe solutions offer:

• Best-in-class bandwidth up to 1 GHz
• Best-in-class input capacitance as low as 3.9 pF which minimizes probe loading effects
• Best-in-class input capacitance which minimizes performance loss when long ground leads are attached
• Automated probe compensation eliminating the need for the compensation screwdriver

The TPP1000, TPP0500 and TPP0502 models are high-bandwidth, general-purpose probes from Tektronix that offer breakthrough specifications previously unrealized in this product class. Designed for use with Tektronix MSO/DPO4000B and MSO/DPO5000 Series oscilloscopes, these probes provide up to 1 GHz of analog bandwidth with less than 3.9 pF of capacitive loading.

KEY PERFORMANCE SPECS

• 1 GHz and 500 MHz probe bandwidth models
• <4 pF input capacitance
• 10X and 2X attenuation factor
• 300 V CAT II input voltage
• Designed for use with the MSO/DPO4000B and MSO/DPO5000 series oscilloscopes

KEY FEATURES

• Compact probe head for probing small-geometry circuit elements
• Small probe body for enhanced visibility to the device-under-test
• Rigid tip for secure device-under-test connectivity
• Replaceable probe tip cartridges
• Large accessory set for versatile connectivity

CONNECTIVITY

• Integrated oscilloscope and probe measurement system provides intelligent communication that automatically scales and adjusts units on the oscilloscope display to match the probe attenuation
• Built-in AC compensation optimizes signal path across the entire frequency range

APPLICATIONS

• Low-power devices
• Service
• Manufacturing engineering test
• Research and development

Accurate high-speed passive probing

The extremely low capacitive loading limits adverse affects on your circuits and is more forgiving of longer ground leads. And with the probe's wide bandwidth, you can see the high-frequency components in your signal which is critical for high-speed applications. The TPP1000 and TPP0500 passive voltage probes offer all the benefits of general-purpose probes like high dynamic range, flexible connection options, and robust mechanical design, while providing the performance of active probes.
