P6135A Instruction Manual
Getting Started Getting Started
Getting Started
The Tektronix P6135A probe is a 10X passive differential probe pair
specifically designed for use with T ektronix differential plug-in
units.
Product Description
Three sets of probe tips included with the package allow the probe
pair to be used with plug-in units or oscilloscopes having input
impedances of 1 MW at 13 to 17 pF (red tips), 1 MW at 18 to 22 pF
(black tips), or 1 MW at 45 to 49 pF (blue tips). The attenuation ratio
is adjustable to 10X, including the affect of amplifier input
impedance.
The probes need not be used as a pair. When used individually, each
will provide highly accurate signal transmission to any compatible
oscilloscope input.
When the P6135A probe pair is used on a differential amplifier, the
adjustable attenuation ratio compensates for differences in amplifier
input resistance, thus improving the common-mode rejection ratio
(CMRR) of the system.
The built-in compensation box adjusts for uniform frequency
response characteristics, providing a high CMRR from DC to high
frequencies, as well as adjustments to optimize transient response.
The special low-noise coaxial cable used on the P6135A helps to
maintain high system CMRR, even when a probe is moved. Each
probe has a 1.5 meter probe cable.
The P6135A probe pair meets the requirements of UL 1244 and is
fully compatible with the T ektronix family of compact probe
accessories.

Operating Basics Operating Basics
Operating Basics
This section discusses technical issues you should consider when
using the P6135A probe pair.
Probe Calibration
Accurate differential measurements require careful matching of both
channels of the differential measurement system. In calibrating a
probe pair to obtain optimum common-mode rejection ratio
(CMRR), the adjustments compensate for imbalances in the
differential amplifier and between the probes themselves.
NOTE. Probes will meet specification only when calibrated to the
inputs on which they are used. If the probes are interchanged on the
differential amplifier inputs or moved to another instrument, they
must be recalibrated (this also applies when using the probes in
nondifferential mode).
Probe calibration is not difficult but must be accurately performed to
achieve high CMRR characteristics. Refer to the Performance
Verification & Calibration Procedures beginning on page 4–1 for
calibration procedures.
CMRR Considerations
Common-mode signals are signals or parts of signals that are
identical in amplitude, frequency, and phase. A differential amplifier
rejects common-mode signals and amplifies the difference. The
degree of rejection depends primarily on the symmetry of the
amplifier and signal path. CMRR refers to the degree of rejection of
common-mode signals and is expressed as a ratio. For instance, if
10 V of input common-mode signal resulted in 1 mV at the output,
the CMRR would be 10,000:1.
P6135A Instruction Manual
2–1
Operating Basics
The specified CMRR of a system assumes that the points being
measured have identical source impedances. The measurement
system input impedance has a loading effect on the source. It also
affects the common-mode signal voltage as seen by the system.
Measurement points having a significant difference in source
impedance will present an unbalanced common-mode signal to the
test system, thereby degrading CMRR performance.
A major advantage of using the P6135A probe pair with differential
amplifiers is that loading is reduced at mid-to-high frequencies
because of lower input capacitance. This reduced loading minimizes
the effect of source impedance differences and makes it possible to
have sufficient range for probe calibration balance adjustments, even
in the presence of source impedance differences.
Balancing Probe Pair Impedance Differences
In order to optimize CMRR, you must balance the probe pair
impedance differences using the following strategy.
1. Calibrate the probes with both probe tips connected to the same
test point. See the Performance Verification & Calibration
Procedures beginning on page 4–1 for calibration procedures.
2. Connect the probe tips to the desired test points and recalibrate
them for the best CMRR. Ensure that the adjustments are
attenuating only the common-mode signal. The best CMRR can
be obtained by making final adjustments with the signal to be
measured.
3. Recalibrate the probes if you change frequencies or move the
probes to other test points. (Adjustment at one frequency can
degrade CMRR performance for other frequencies.)
Dynamic Range Effects
The 10X attenuation of the P6135A probe pair effectively increases
the dynamic range of the amplifier for CMRR measurements by a
factor of 10. This increase in range applies at all frequencies and

settings of the Volts/Div switch and is limited only by the bandwidth
and input voltage ratings of the system.
Probe Grounding
When using the P6135A probe pair for low-frequency CMRR
measurements (less than 1 MHz), neither probe should be grounded
to the equipment under test. Instead, the probe shields should be
connected together at the probe bodies as shown in Figure 2–1. The
probes will then be grounded through their BNC shells to the
oscilloscope ground. Unfortunately, this degrades high-frequency
performance but reduces the effect of ground-loop currents that can
degrade low-frequency CMRR.

For high-frequency measurements (greater than 1 MHz), the probes

This section contains information on preventive and corrective
maintenance.
Preventive Maintenance
Preventive maintenance includes visually inspecting and cleaning
the probes. Perform preventive maintenance on a regular basis to
prevent instrument breakdown and improve reliability. The
frequency of maintenance depends on environmental operating
conditions. A good time to perform maintenance is just before a
performance verification check or calibration.
CAUTION. To prevent electric shock or component shorting, do not
perform any maintenance with the probe connected to a signal or
voltage source.
Visual Inspection
Occasionally inspect the P6135A probe pair for broken connections,
damaged parts, bent leads, or heat-damaged components.
Cleaning
To remove accumulated dirt from the probe exterior, use a soft cloth
dampened with a mild detergent and water solution or isopropyl
alcohol. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
CAUTION. Avoid chemical cleaning agents that may damage the
probe’s circuit board or plastic components. In particular, avoid
chemicals containing benzene, toluene, xylene, acetone, MEK, or
similar solvents.
