Attenuating Tips (one required)

Attenuating tips are sold separately from the probe itself, but at least one tip is required for
proper functioning. Tips can be stored in a compartment in the soft carrying case.

The

attenuating tip

makes a three-wire

connection to the DUT,

while the other end of the tip connects to the USB Micro-B input on
the transmitter. Each tip communicates identifying information to
the transmitter. The fixed attenuation determines the maximum
voltage level that can be measured. All tips are interchangeable
with any HVFO transmitter and do not require specialized

calibration with a specific HVFO probe. The E-Z Micro-Grippers
may be used with any of the tips.

Note:

Tip selection is important to optimize for best noise performance. Using a tip with a wider

dynamic voltage range than necessary will result in more noise.

Optional Accessories

These items may be purchased separately as accessories to the probe.
