Introduction

Differential probe provides a safety means for measuring differential voltage to all models of oscilloscopes It can convert the high differential voltage into a low voltage(<7V)and display on the oscilloscope. Its bandwidth is up to 200MHz,which is ideal for big power testing ,development and maintain.

The Differential probe is designed to operate with the 1MΩ impedance oscilloscopes. When combine with the 50Ω load , the attenuation will be 2 times. It can be widely used in the research and development, debugging or maintenance of switching power supplies, frequency converters, electronic ballasts, frequency conversion appliances and other electrical power devices.

Operating instruction

  • Connect the output BNC interface of the differential probe(Take N1070A as an example) to the oscilloscope.
  • Adjust the vertical switch on the oscilloscope if necessary.
  • Adjust the attenuation rate and vertical switch on the oscilloscope to a consistent position.
  • The measured voltage value should be estimated before the test, if the voltage range is exceeded, the probe may be damaged.
  • Before the probe is turned on, it is best to set the probe ratio to the maximum; The power adapter is plugged into the probe, the green light is on when the probe is power on, when the test voltage exceeds the range, the light is red.
  • Set the attenuation ratio of the oscilloscope according to the ratio selected by the probe.
  • The probe hook is connected to the object to be measured and start measuring.
  • After the test is completed, turn off the circuit under test first, then turn off the probe switch, disconnect the probe hook from the tested circuit, and unplug the BNC interface from the oscilloscope.

(Attention)
The power must be turned on.
The actual vertical bias is equal to the attenuation multiplied by the vertical bias selected on the oscilloscope, which is twice as high as the 50Ω load used.
When connecting the differential probe BNC output cable to an oscilloscope or other device, ensure that the BNC terminal is securely grounded.

Using precautions

The input cable should be wound as much as possible during the measurement, which can better eliminate the lead inductance and external noise, and improve the high-frequency response and anti-interference ability. Like this:

Better don’t lengthen the input cable, otherwise will get more noise.
