Probe Adapter for Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers
The RTPA2A Real Time
Probe Adapter extends the capabilities of Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers (RTSA)
by offering additional tools to make debugging today’s high-performance electrical
designs easier. Using the RTPA2A with Tektronix RTSA, design engineers can
benefit from Tektronix' industry-leading active and differential probes to
measure signals on SMD pins, and other challenging circuit features.
The
RTPA2A provides probe power for up to two Tektronix P7000 Series probes through
an external power supply. Probe control signals are handled through a USB
cable that connects the RTPA2A to the RTSA. This allows the RTSA to automatically
adjust the scale factor to account for attenuation factor of the probe in
channel A. The included SMA-to-N cable allows the high speed RF signal to
travel between the RTPA2A and the RTSA.
Microsoft Windows XP is required
on the RTSA to communicate with the RTPA2A. The RTSA also requires Main System
software shipped after August 2005 to be compatible with the RTPA2A.
Tektronix
High-Performance Probing Solutions
Tektronix offers a variety of industry-leading
active and differential probes. The 8 GHz P7380 differential probe enables
true differential probing of electrical signals. The 8 GHz P7380SMA differential
probe provide a true differential SMA input. Tektronix' high-performance probes
feature small probe heads and numerous adapters to provide a flexible and
reliable connection to the device under test (DUT).
