damage to this product or any products connected to it. To avoid
potential hazards, use this product only as specified.
WARNING. Only qualified personnel should perform servi ce
procedures
WARNING. This probe has no user-serviceable or Tektronix-serviceable parts.
To Avoid Fire or Personal Injury
TDS1000/2000 Series Oscilloscope Use. Do not float this probe when
used with a TDS1000/2000 Series Oscilloscope.
TPS2000 Series Oscilloscope Use. Do not float the reference lead of thi s
probe to > 30 V

Connect and Disconnect Properly. Connect the probe output to the
measurement instrument before connecting the probe to the circuit
under test. Di sconnect the probe input and the probe reference lead
from the circuit under test before disconnecting the probe from the
measurement instrument.
Observe All Terminal Ratings. To avoid fire or shock hazard, observe al l
ratings and markings on the product. Consult the product manual for
further ratings information before making connections to the product.
Avoid Electric Overload. To avoid injury or fire hazard, do not apply
potential to any input, including the reference inputs, that varies
from ground by more than the maximum rating for that input.

P2220 Passive Probe
The P2220 200 MHz 1X/10X Passive Probe is a compact passive
probe with selectable 1X/10X attenuation. The probe is designed for
use with Tektronix TDS1000, TDS2000, and TPS2000 Series
oscilloscopes with input capacitances between 15 and 25 pF. This
probe has no user-serviceable or Tektronix-serviceable parts.
Do not float this probe when used with a TDS1000/2000 Series Oscilloscope.
Do not float the reference lead of this probe to > 30 V
TPS2000 Series Oscilloscope. Use the P5120 (floatable to 600 V
CAT II or 300 V
CAT III) or similarly rated passive high voltage
RMS
probe or an appropriately rated high voltage differential probe when
floating the reference lead above 30 V
such high voltage probe.

Probe Compensation
Due to variations in oscilloscope input characteristics, probe
low-frequency compensation may need adjustment after moving the
probe from one oscilloscope to another. If a 1 kHz calibrated square
wave displayed at 1 ms/division shows significant differences
between the leading and trailing edges, perform the following steps
to optimize low-frequency compensation.
1. Connect the probe to the c alibrati on signal on the oscilloscope
front panel.
2. Press AUTOSET or otherwise adjust your digitizing oscilloscope
to display a me aningful waveform.
3. Adjust the trimmer in the probe until you see a perfectly flat-top
square wave on the display. See Figure 1.
