Product Description
Tektronix TPP1000 Passive Voltage Probe – 1 GHz, 10X Attenuation, TekVPI Interface
This used Tektronix TPP1000 is a high-bandwidth, general-purpose passive voltage probe from the TekVPI probe interface family . It offers breakthrough specifications previously unrealized in this product class, providing the high dynamic range and flexible connection options of a general-purpose probe with the high-speed performance of an active probe . The TPP1000 has been discontinued by Tektronix and replaced by the newer TPP1000A model .
Designed for use with Tektronix MDO3000, MDO4000, MSO/DPO5000, and 5 Series MSO oscilloscopes, this probe provides up to 1 GHz of analog bandwidth with less than 3.9 pF of capacitive loading, minimizing adverse effects on your circuits and allowing the use of longer ground leads .
The integrated oscilloscope and probe measurement system provides intelligent communication that automatically scales and adjusts units on the oscilloscope display to match the probe’s 10X attenuation .
Condition Note: This unit is untested and sold as-is. No original accessories or documentation are included unless specified. Accessories such as the rigid tip, pogo tip, ground springs, alligator ground lead, hook tip, and IC cap are typically included with a new unit but are not guaranteed with this used listing .
