P5205.
The P5200 can be used with any oscilloscope and enables users to
safely make
measurements of floating circuits with their
oscilloscope grounded. The P5200 Active
Differential Probe converts floating signals
to low-voltage ground referenced signals
that can be displayed safely and easily on
any ground referenced oscilloscope.
WARNING: For safe operation, do not use
the P5200 High Voltage Differential Probe
with oscilloscopes that have floating inputs
(isolated inputs), such as the Tektronix
TPS2000 Series oscilloscopes and
THS700 Series oscilloscopes. The P5200
High Voltage Differential Probe requires
an oscilloscope or other measurement
instrument with grounded inputs.
The P5210 is a Differential Probe that is
capable of measuring floating voltages up
to 5,600 V (DC +pk AC)
safely and has
a bandwidth up to 50 MHz. It is supplied
with two sizes of hook tips and has an
P5200.

The P5205 is a 100 MHz Active Differential
Probe capable of measuring fast rise times
of signals in floating circuits. This 1,300 V
differential probe can measure safely
voltages in IGBT circuits such as motor
drives or power converters. It is specifically
designed to operate on Tektronix oscilloscopes with TEKPROBE interface.
