Compensating a non-TPP0500B or non-TPP1000 passive voltage probe
Whenever you attach a passive voltage probe for the first time to any input
channel, compensate the probe to match it to the corresponding oscilloscope
input channel.
If you are interested in using the automatic probe compensation procedure
described above for the TPP0500B and TPP1000 probes See
TPP0500B or TPP1000 passive voltage probe
on page 15. on a non-TPP0500B/
TPP1000 Tektronix passive probe, check the instruction manual for your probe to
see if it qualifies. Otherwise, to properly compensate your passive probe:
1.
Follow the steps for the functional check. See
on page 13.
2.
Check the shape of the displayed waveform to determine if your probe is
properly compensated.
3.
If necessary, adjust your probe. Repeat as needed.
Quick Tips
Use the shortest possible ground lead and signal path to minimize probe-induced
ringing and distortion on the measured signal.
Signal with a short ground lead Signal with a long ground lead
