P5120.

P5100 High Voltage Probe

The P5100 is a low-input capacitance

High Voltage Probe (2.5 kV) designed for

higher frequency applications. The probe

can be compensated to match plug-ins

and oscilloscopes with nominal input

capacitances of 7 to 30 pF. A variety of

screw-on accessories provide easy

connection to the device under test.

P5102 & P5120 IsolatedChannel

TM

Applications

In many applications, it is important to be

able to isolate the measurement from

earth ground and also to isolate the

common voltage between channels.

The P5102, paired with the THS700

Series handheld digital storage

oscilloscopes, and the P5120, coupled

with the TPS2000 Series digital storage

oscilloscopes, deliver both the isolation

for the measurement from earth ground

and full isolation between the channels.

The 100 MHz P5102 is designed to give

you isolated channel performance for up

to 1,000 V

CAT II when used with the

RMS

THS700 Series oscilloscopes. The

200 MHz P5120 passive high voltage

probe, for use with the TPS2000 Series

oscilloscopes, is designed to give you up

to 1,000 V

CAT II of isolated channel

RMS

performance. A variety of screw-on

adapters are available for easy connec-

tion to the device under test.

P6015A High Voltage Probe

For heavy-duty, high-performance meas-

urements of voltages over 2.5 kV, the

P6015A is the industry standard. You can

measure DC voltages up to 20 kV

RMS

and

pulses up to 40 kV (peak, 100 ms duration).

The 75 MHz bandwidth enables you to

capture fast, high-voltage signals.

The P6015A uses an environmentally safe

silicone compound for a dielectric and

never needs refilling. Other features

include a 7 to 49 pF compensation range,

a small compensation box that fits on

adjacent amplifier inputs and a readout

option for use with most Tektronix digital

scopes. With the readout option, displayed

voltage amplitude values will be the actual

signal value rather than understated by a

factor of 1,000.

Note: Using the readout version with

other than Tektronix digital scopes may

result in an erroneous readout display.
