Industry’s Most Advanced Probing System (Continued)
Turn your V-Series into a Time-Domain
Transmission (TDT) instrument to quickly
characterize and compensate any probes, cables
or measurement setup�
PrecisionProbe technology turns your oscilloscope into the
ultimate characterization tool� It provides quick characterization
of your entire measurement setup (including probes, cables and
switches) without the need for extra equipment� PrecisionProbe
takes advantage of the Infiniium V-Series’ 12 ps edge to
characterize and compensate for loss on the measurement
system�
PrecisionProbe compensation technology:
– Creates custom probe transfer function (Vout/Vin)
– Characterizes probed system transfer function
(Vout/Vin = Vout/Vsrc)
The magnitude and phase response of a cable corrected using
PrecisionProbe�
– Removes unwanted cable insertion loss (S21)
Now every probe and cable in the system can have the exact
same frequency response without measurement variation caused
by probe or cable difference� You can properly characterize
custom probes as well�
When you combine InfiniiMax III and III+ probes with switches
between the amplifier and the probe head, PrecisionProbe allows
full correction for each probe’s path� For increased accuracy,
PrecisionProbe Advanced with faster edge (6 ps) is available�
