Selecting
the right probe for your application is key to attaining the best
signal fidelity in your measurements. Active probes provide truer
signal reproduction and fidelity for high-frequency measurements.
With our ultra-low input capacitance and unique interface, the TAP2500
and TAP3500 Single-ended Active FET probes provide excellent high-speed
electrical and mechanical performance required for today’s digital
system designs.
Specifically designed for use and direct connection
to the TekVPI™ probe interface used on the DPO7000 and DPO4000 Series
oscilloscopes, the TAP2500 and TAP3500 Active FET probes achieve high-speed
signal acquisition and measurement fidelity by solving three traditional
problems:
- Lower DUT loading effects with ≤0.8 pF input
capacitance and 40 kΩ input resistance
- Versatile DUT connectivity
for attaching to small SMDs
- Preserves oscilloscope bandwidth
at the probe tip for DPO7000 and DPO4000 Series Oscilloscope models
up to 3.5 GHz
