Passive Probes Overview

Passive voltage probes are general-purpose probing solutions that come standard with most oscilloscopes. They offer a low-cost option with wide dynamic range suitable for various applications. Tektronix has introduced a new class of passive probes that excel in performance within this category.

Tektronix Passive Probe Solutions

The new class of passive probe solutions from Tektronix offers various models with different specifications. Some of the key models include TPP1000, TPP0500B, TPP0502, TPP0250, TPP0051, TPP0100, TPP0101, TPP0200, and more.

Key Specifications

Ensure you select the appropriate probe based on the required bandwidth, attenuation, input impedance, and maximum voltage rating. The interface compatibility is also crucial for proper integration with your oscilloscope.

FAQs

What are the key features of Tektronix passive probes?
The Tektronix passive probes offer a wide range of bandwidth options, attenuation settings, and maximum voltage ratings suitable for various testing scenarios. They are designed for compatibility with TekVPI w/Key and BNC interfaces.

Which models of oscilloscopes are compatible with Tektronix passive probes?
Tektronix passive probes are compatible with a range of Tektronix oscilloscope models including TDS1000/2000, TBS1000 TPS2000 THS3000, MSO/DPO2000 MSO/DPO3000 MSO/DPO4000 series, DPO7000C series, and more. Refer to the user manual for specificcompatibility details.

Some probes require an external power supply (1103) when used with the TDS3000 series 2. When using with MSO / DPO2000 series, a dedicated AC adapter (119-8726-00) and a power cable (161-0342-00) are required. 3. When using with MSO / DPO3000 series, depending on the probe you may need a separate AC adapter (119-8726-00) and a power cable (161-0342-00). 4. When using with MSO / DPO5000 series, separate AC adapter (119-8726-00) and power cable (161-0342-00) may be required depending on the probe model and number. 5. When using with TBS2000 and MDO3000 series, the total power draw capacity can not exceed the maximum power supply capacity of the oscilloscope, see here for more information. 6.

Readout does not function in the TBS2000 series.

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

Active Probes Low Voltage Single-ended

ISOLATED

OPTICAL

A low voltage single-ended probe is typically used for measuring high-speed, ground referenced signals up to 12 V. These low voltage probes are the best choice for making measurements on high impedance, high frequency circuit elements which require minimal probe loading. Users should select probes with a low input capacitance specification (1 pF) to minimize the probe’s loading effect on the circuit. A probe with lower input capacitance will offer higher input impedance at higher frequencies.
Tektronix Low Voltage Single-ended Probe solutions offer:
· Bandwidths up to 4 GHz
· Very high input impedance with low input capacitance (<1 pF)
· Most extensive set of probe accessories for optimum measurement performance
· The TAP1500L is equipped with a 7 m cable; Ideal for Flying Probe Testers

Unique probe filters
The P7600 Series probes contain probe specific S-parameter data. Attaching a P7600 probe to a MSO/DPO70000DX or DPO70000SX oscilloscope transfers this data to the instrument to create unique system DSP filters based on the specific S-parameter data of the oscilloscope and the probe. Creating unique filters based on the specific response of the system is critical as bandwidths increase. At bandwidths of 33 GHz, small variations in the signal path can lead to significant variation in frequency response. These variations are corrected using DSP filtering.

The browser tips are constructed of high strength BeCu and super-ceramic resistors. Each pin has integrated pogo springs and a crown cut tip to help make solid mechanical connections to components and traces.
Probe Stand and wand accessories for both hands free and hands on browsing give you flexibility when you are debugging your circuit.
TekFlex connector technology
The P7700 & TDP7700 Series TriMode probes use the TekFlex connector technology that combines a highspeed signal path with power and communication support for an active buffer tip in a single, easy to attach accessory connector. The TekFlex connector has a pinch-to-open design that when open requires minimal force to attach an accessory tip. When the TekFlex connector is closed, it provides a secure connection to the accessory to avoid accidental disconnections.

P77C292MM
SMA/2.92mm adapter for connecting to coaxial connectors RF/coaxial connectors, such as SMA, are often found on test fixtures or on prototype board designs. Attaching a P7700 or TDP7700 series probe to these on-board connectors is easy with the SMA adapter.
The P77C292MM adapter includes TriMode functionality enabling differential, single ended, and common mode measurements. Include variable termination voltage that can be set manually or automatically using voltage sense circuitry in the P7700 or TDP7700 probes over a range of ±4 V for testing display technologies like HDMI and Display Port.
P77STCABL
20 GHz solder down accessory with a long reach, flexible cable combined with an active buffer amplifier on the tip. The long tip reach make it great for escaping tight board geometries while maintaining electrical performance.

P77STFLXA
20 GHz solder down, flex-circuit accessory with an active buffer amplifier on its tip. Each tip has a stored factory AC calibration which is de-embedded automatically on the instrument
P77STFLXB
16 GHz solder down, flex-circuit accessory provides a probing solution for DDR4 and LPDDR4 electrical validation when used with Nexus XH Series Interposers. Each tip has a stored factory AC calibration and a nominal XH series interposer response which is de-embedded automatically on the instrument
P77STFLRB / P77HTFLRB
16 GHz solder down, Long-Reach, flex-circuit accessory provides a probing solution for DDR and LPDDR electrical validation when used with Nexus XH Series Interposers. The FLR tips’ increased flexibility and long reach helps access inaccessible test points. Each tip has a stored factory AC calibration and a nominal XH series interposer response which is de-embedded automatically on the instrument.

High Voltage Probes – Single-ended

HIGH VOLTAGE DIFFERENTIAL

ISOLATED

OPTICAL

A high voltage single-ended probe is typically used for measuring ground referenced signals up to 40 kV. However, some single-ended probes are designed for instruments with isolated or floating inputs for measurements that are not ground referenced. Users should select probes with a low input capacitance specification (< 4 pF) to minimize the probe’s loading effect on the circuit because a probe with lower input capacitance will offer higher input impedance at higher frequencies.
Tektronix High Voltage Probe solutions offer:
· Best-in-class bandwidth up to 800 MHz
· Best-in-class probe loading with input capacitance as low as 1.8 pF
· The only products with 3rd Party Safety Certification (UL, CSA, ETL)
· Most extensive set of probe accessories

A high voltage differential probe is used for measuring the voltage difference between two test points where neither test point is at ground. High voltage differential probes from Tektronix can be used for signals up to 6000 V. These probes are the best choice for making non-ground referenced, floating or isolated measurements in large part due to their common mode rejection capability. These products are designed, manufactured, and serviced by Tektronix.
