Characteristics—P6047

SECTION

I

CHARACTERISTICS

General Information

The P6047

Probe

is

a

passive

10X

attenuation

probe

with

a frequency response of

DC

to 290

MHz.

It

can be compensated for oscilloscopes or

plug-in

units

having an input impedance of

1

megohm paralleled by

15

to

20

picofarads

and

is

factory

calibrated

for 20 picofarads.

The

probe consists of a small-diameter probe

body assembly, which

is

especially

useful in

compact circuitry, a 3.5-foot or a 6-foot cable,

and a compensating box with a

BNC

connector.

The

compensating box houses a network which

provides optimum transient response when the

probe

is

used with

wideband

oscilloscopes.

The

probe compensation networks for the two cable
lengths differ slightly from one another.

The

probe can be low-frequency compensated to

match the input of the instrument being used
by adiusting the

variable capacitor

through

the hole

in

the compensating box cover. lnter-

nal

adiustments

are

provided for high-frequency

compensation.

CHARACTERISTICS

Bandwidth

The

bandwidth of the

P6047

Probe

is

DC

to

290MHz.

Input

Impedance

The

input impedance of the probe

is

10

meg-

ohms

paralleled by

less

than

10.3

picofarads

for

the

35-foot cable

and

less

than

12

pico-

farads for the 6-foot cable,

at

140 kHz.

See

Figs. 1-2

and

1-3

for input impedance

vs. fre-

quency curves.

Compensating Range

The

probe can be compensated for oscillo-

scopes or plug-in

units

having an input capaci-

tance of

15

to

20

picofarads.

Attenuation

Attenuation

is

10X,

:270

with

plug-in or

oscilloscope having 1-megohm input resistance.

Voltage Rating

The

maximum

DC

+

AC

peak input

voltage

is

500

volts, continuous wave

(CW).

See

Fig.

1-4

for derating curves.

Transient Response

The

risetime of the probe

is

$1.2

nanoseconds.

The

maximum ringing, rounding, and over-

shoot

is

33%.

The

maximum

tilt

is

32%.

Connecting Cable

The

cable

is

made with a special resistive

center which provides

,critical

damping of

re-

flections.

Environmental Capabilities

The

probe

will

operate

normally

at

tempera-

tures

from

—30°C to

+65°C,

and

at

altitudes

to

15,000

feet.
