Probe Introduction
PVA7000, with more than 2.5GHz bandwidth, is an active probe for high
frequency application. It can be used to measure differential and single-ended
signals with better common mode rejection. PVA7000 uses plug-on socket
probe head and supports 3 types of interchangeable probe heads to optimize
the performance and usability. Besides, its replaceable probe tip prolongs the
service life of the probe and the probe tip spacing can be precisely adjusted to
fit different test point spacings.
PVA7000 is compatible with the auto-identification port of RIGOL
MSO/DS7000/MSO8000 series oscilloscope and can be recognized and
configured automatically by this port. Its snap-in BNC connector enables easier
connection with the oscilloscope.
PVA7000 provides various accessories and options, as well as multiple
replaceable components which make it applicable to be used in different tests
and measurements.
