6 Functional test
The functional test confirms the basic operation of the R&S RT
‑
Z1M high-impedance
buffer amplifier and the R&S RT-ZP10 passive probe using simple measurement
equipment.
The functional test is not suitable to verify compliance with the specifications of the
R&S
RT
‑
Z1M high-impedance buffer amplifier, because the test results are influenced
by the used oscilloscope.
Figure 6-1: Functional test
1. Connect the R&S RT
‑
Z1M to a Rohde & Schwarz oscilloscope as described in
Chapter 3.1, "Connecting the buffer amplifier to the oscilloscope" , on page 11.
2. Connect the R&S RT-ZP10 probe to the probe interface of the buffer amplifier.
3. Connect the probe tip to the square wave output of the oscilloscope.
4. Connect the ground lead to the probe ground connector of the oscilloscope.
5. Press the [Preset] and then the [Autoset] key on the oscilloscope.
A square wave between 0 V and 1 V is displayed on the oscilloscope screen.
