Key Features and Key Characteristics
The R&S
RT
‑
ZD10/20/30 is a differential probe with high input impedance. It
allows the user to make differential voltage measurements from DC to 1.0
GHz,
1.5 GHz, and 3 GHz, respectively.
Differential probes can be used for single-ended and differential applications.
Because differential probes are equipped with two high-impedance inputs, they
measure the voltage between any two test points. Unlike with single-ended
probes, the user does not have to ensure that one of the test points is always at
ground potential.
The comprehensive accessory set allows this probe to be connected to a wide
variety of devices under test (DUT). Provided with special features such as the
R&S ProbeMeter and the micro button, the R&S
RT
‑
ZD10/20/30 is designed to
meet tomorrow's challenges in probing.
The external attenuator R&S
RT
‑
ZA15 can be used to extend the input voltage
range of the R&S
RT
‑
ZD10/20/30. It is supplied with the R&S
RT
‑
ZD10 and is
available as optional accessory for the R&S
RT
‑
ZD20/30.
Since the probe is equipped with Rohde & Schwarz probe interface, it can be
connected to any Rohde & Schwarz base unit that is compatible with this inter-
face. When connected to the front panel of an R&S oscilloscope, the probe is
controlled via the software menus of the oscilloscope.
Using a specially developed adapter (see
chapter 1.4.2, "Optional Accessories"
on page 15), the probe can be connected to any other base unit.
