An oscilloscope and a device under test (DUT) constitute a de-facto system. In it, the most overlooked element is the interface between the two: the oscilloscope’s probes. Test personnel simply grab ...

[Tuomas Nylund] wanted a way to visualize the electromagnetic fields (EMF) around him. He figured the oscilloscope was the tool best suited for the task, but he needed a way to pick up the fields and ...

In Part 1, we covered the bandwidth limitations of passive probes and why they can't be used in today's switching power supply designs. High-frequency probes are expensive and often out of reach to ...

The good thing about being a field applications engineer is that you get to work on many different circuits, often all at the same time. While this is interesting, it also presents problems. Jumping ...

If you do any work with high-speed signals, you quickly realize that probing is an art unto itself. Just having a fast oscilloscope isn’t enough; you’ve got to have probes fast enough to handle the ...

Remember fundamentals and practice situational awareness in taking measurements. It’s not only using the right probe, but it’s also using the probe right. Eliminating measurement artifacts is tricky, ...

Probing solution is industry first to operate at bandwidths greater than 50 GHz with high-impedance probe head High-impedance, turnkey solution delivers bandwidths up to 52 GHz Brickwall and 40 GHz ...
