P6209 4 GHz Probe Instruction Manual
NOTE
. The P6209 probe is guaranteed to have less than 7.5 mV
offset. However, the CSA/TDS8000 and TDS 820 will have some
residual voltage remaining when set to 0.00 V offset that will appear
in this test as additional offset at the probe output.
DC Attenuation Accuracy
Use this procedure to verify the probe DC attenuation accuracy.
1.
Set the oscilloscope trigger to internal clock.
2.
Set the oscilloscope channel vertical offset to 0.00 V.
3.
Set the multimeter to read DC volts.
4.
Connect the probe tip and ground to the DC calibrator output of
the CSA/TDS8000, using the Y-lead adapter, KlipChips and SMA
adapter jack.
If the probe is being used with a TDS 820 oscilloscope, a separate
DC power supply is needed to provide the stimulus. In this case,
connect the probe to the power supply using the Y-lead adapter
and KlipChips.
Record the results of steps 5 through 11 separately. Use the results to
calculate the DC accuracy of the probe in step 12.
5.
Set the DC calibration output of the CSA/TDS8000 (or external
power supply if using a TDS 820), to +1.000 V. Use the
multimeter to verify the DC voltage is as close to +1.000 V as
possible. Record this measurement as Vmax.
6.
Connect the multimeter as shown in Figure 13 on page 37.
