Performance Verification
f
Connect the DP001xA probe to any available channel of the oscilloscope.
g
Connect the DP001xA probe’s input directly to the header pins on the PV
fixture.
•
Connect the “+” lead of the probe tip to the header pin located on the center
conductor (signal trace) of the deskew fixture.
•
Connect the “-” lead of the probe tip to the header pin located on the
ground plane of the deskew fixture.
2
Set the vertical scale of the channel to which the probe is connected to
2 V/div
.
3
Observe impedance reading and record the result.
4
Flip probe connections on the PV fixture such that the “-” lead of the probe
input is now on the signal trace pin and “+” side of the probe input is now on
the ground pin of PV fixture.
5
Observe impedance reading and record the result.
6
Confirm that the measured impedances are within the rated tolerance of your
probe model.
7
Change the vertical scale of the channel to which the probe under test is
connected to
5 V/div
.
