oscilloscope gain and offset accuracy at the probe tip.
The Deskew Fixture accommodates several Tektronix probes. It has components
that aid in the alignment of probes, such as cable retainers, stainless steel
springs, guide posts and square pins. The probes are held in place allowing
hands-free operation without requiring a probe arm.
