Proper Amplitude of a
1 MHz Test Signal
Reduced Amplitude of a
1 MHz Test Signal
Increased Amplitude of a
1 MHz Test Signal
Once compensated, the probe conveys signals to the input channel accurately, without
artificially attenuating or amplifying frequency components of the signal.
Tip
For the most accurate measurements:
•
Compensate probes for each channel of the oscilloscope;
•
Use a compensated probe only with the channel you used to compensate it; and
•
Compensate your probes frequently.
