Probes have different (sometimes switchable) attenuation ratios that change how the signals are fed into your oscilloscope. For example, a 10:1 probe connected to a 1-V signal will pass 100 mV to ...

An ideal probe would not load the DUT, would transmit the signal under investigation from its tip to the oscilloscope with perfect fidelity, have zero attenuation, zero capacitance, zero inductance, ...

Input capacitance could be further reduced by increasing the probe attenuation, but doing so would reduce the signal coming into the oscilloscope and make it difficult or impossible to measure small ...

High-impedance (Hi-Z) passive probes are the most commonly used oscilloscope probes and offer attenuation factors of 10:1 (X10) and/or 100:1 (X100), a typical maximum input voltage of 600 V ...

Both these probes are powered from the power terminal of DLM oscilloscopes’ or from separate external ... It offers a 500 MHz bandwidth and a wide input voltage range of +/- 35V, with an attenuation ...

A 100 MHz scope will have a defined attenuation (70% ... We are pretty sure garden variety probes on a 70 MHz scope aren’t behaving as promised at 400 MHz, so maybe that’s part of the reason ...

through the TekVPI interface. This means the oscilloscope will automatically scale the display to match the attenuation factor of the probe to show the correct results. A built-in auto-compensation ...

On low voltage circuits as you might expect it’s not quite as useful as a regular probe, not surprising given its 1000x attenuation. The ‘scope trace is noisy at these voltages, but it does ...

For oscilloscopes, Yokogawa has replaced six existing differential voltage probes with three expanded capability probes, and is offering new current probes too. “Recent trends for higher voltages in ...

The integrated offset compensation operates independently of probe attenuation and the oscilloscope’s vertical settings and makes it possible to measure even very small ripple voltages with a large DC ...
