Product Description

The Tektronix P7260 is a 6 GHz active probe. It has a low input
capacitance (<0.5 pF) and high input resistance (20 kΩ at DC),
which minimize circuit loading over a wide bandwidth range.

The P7260 probe features selectable attenuation to maximize
dynamic range and sensitivity. The 5X setting provides 1.5 V
dynamic range and <75 ps risetime, and the 25X setting provides
6V

dynamic range and <85 ps risetime.

p--p

Designed for use with the TDS6604 TekConnect host instrument, the
P7260 system bandwidth is typically 6 GHz at the probe tip. The
TekConnect interface extends useful bandwidth and signal fidelity to
18 GHz.

TekConnect Interface

The P7260 is powered through a TekConnect interface between the
probe compensation box and the host instrument. The TekConnect
interface provides a communication path through contact pins on the
host instrument. Power, signal, offset, and probe characteristic data
transfer through the interface.

When the probe is connected, the host instrument reads configuration
information from the probe, allowing the host i nstrument to
optimally configure the internal signal path. To protect the preamp
inputs on the host instrument from electrostatic discharge, the inputs
remain grounded until a valid TekConnect device is detected.

P7260 6 GHz 5X/25X Active Probe User Manual

Installation

The P7260 connects directly to the TekConnect interface on the
TekConnect host instrument.

Firmware Requirements

To ensure compatibility of your TekConnect host instrument with the
probe, your TDS7000, or CSA7000 series host instrument must have
the firmware upgrade V2.1.0 or higher.

Firmware upgrade instructions are available on the Tektronix website
at www.tektronix.com. Select the Software & Drivers linkonthe
home page of the website. The Tektronix website provides up-t o-date
software and firmware upgrades for your P7260 and host instrument.

Probe Installation

The TekConnect interface features a spring-loaded latch that
provides audible and tactile confirmation that a reliable connection
has been made to the host instrument. Slide the probe into the
TekConnect receptacle on the host instrument. The probe snaps into
the host instrument when fully engaged. See Figure 2 on page 4.

Product Description

To release the probe from the host instrument, grasp the compensa­tion box, depress the latch button, and pull out the probe.

sets the attenuation of the probe to 25X.

Reading LED diagnostic flashes

In normal operation when you connect the probe, both LEDs flash
once, simultaneously. This flash indicates that the P7260 has
completed internal diagnostics and is initiating communication with
the host. Next, the 25X attenuation LED lights and remains lit,
indicating that the host has recognized the P7260, configured interna l
signal paths accordingly, and set the default attenuation to 25X.

P7260 6 GHz 5X/25X Active Probe User Manual

NOTE. If you see a different set of flashes than described on page 4,
the internal circuitry of the P7260 has failed in some way. To avoid
inaccurate probing, do not use the probe before referring to page 32
of the Troubleshooting section.

Changing Probe Attenuation

Upon installation, the default attenuation of the P7260 is set to 25X.

To manually change attenuation, use the SELECT button located
below the LED lights on t he top of the compensation box. To switch
to 5X attenuation, grasp the compensation box a nd depress the
SELECT button. The 25X LED extinguishes and the 5X LED lights.

Cleaning

Follow these guidelines for cleaning the P7260 probe.

CAUTION. To avoid permanent damage from static or to avoid
damage to the probe tip, do not clean the probe head or probe tip.
While cleaning the compensation box and cable, use only enough
solution to dampen the cloth or swab. No part of the P7260 is
waterproof.

General Care. Do not use chemical cleaning agents. Do not use
chemicals that contain acetone, benzene, toluene, xylene, or similar
solvents because they will damage the plastic.

Clean the exterior surfaces of the compensation box with a dry,
lint-free cloth or a soft-bristle brush. If dirt remains, use a cloth or
swab dampened with a 75% isopropyl alcohol solution. A swab is
useful for cleaning in narrow spaces around the TekConnect release
button and connectors. Do not use abrasive compounds on any part
of the instrument.

--5.0 V (2.5 divisions below ground reference).

P7260 6 GHz 5X/25X Active Probe User Manual

Configuration

The P7260 provides the host instrume nt with the probe model
number, serial number, and attenuation factor. When connecte d to a
host instrument with a TekConnect interface, display readouts are
corrected for the probe attenuation factor, the instrument input is set
to 50 Ω, and the coupling is set to DC. The probe offset control is
controlled by the host instrument.

Probe Offset

The probe offset is adjustable to permit operation within the linear
range of the probe. Using the offset to cancel DC signal components
enables optimal probe performance. See Figure 4 on page 24 for
more information.

NOTE. See your host instrument manual for specific instructions on
its operation and offset control.

To set the probe offset, follow these steps:

1. Ground the input of the probe.

2. Use the vertical position control to set a zero reference level on

the host instrument display.

3. Set the host instrument to 1 V/div.

4. Attach the probe to the test circuit.

5. Adjust the probe offset to bring the trace to the host instrument

zero reference.

6. Change the V/div setting to the desired range, adjusting the offset

to keep the trace on the zero reference level.

P7260 6 GHz 5X/25X Active Probe User Manual

23

Configuration

NOTE. The P7260 has a ±5.0 V offset range which can be measured
in 5X or 25X gain using offset.

The linear operating range at 5X is ±0.75 V. The linear operating
range at 25X is ±3.0 V. See F igure 4, below.

If cursors are used on a TekConnect interface host instrument, the
zero reference will be at the probe offset voltage.

Operating Basics

Please follow these operating guidelines to get optimum performance
from your P7260 probe.

Handling the Probe

Exercise care when using and storing the P7260. The probe and cable
are susceptible to damage caused by careless use.

Handling. Always handle the probe using the compensation box and
probe head, avoiding undue physical strain to the probe cable, such
as kinking, excessive bending, or pulling. Visible dents in the cable
will increase signal aberrations. Do not drop the probe or subject it to
physical shock. Damage to the probe may result.

CAUTION. To avoid breakage of the wires encased in the probe cable
or the wires e ntering the probe head, do not tightly coil the c able for
storage. Use the 6 inch cable reel provided in the probe case, or
make a coil 6 inches or more in diameter.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). The P7260 is sensitive to electrostatic

discharge. When handling the probe, always wear an antistatic wrist
strap (provided with your probe), and plug the wrist strap into the
ground terminal available on your host instrument or static­approved workstation.

Maximum Nondestructive Input Voltage

The P7260 is electrically protected against static voltage; however,
applying voltages above its design limits may damage the probe tip
amplifier. Refer to Table 6 in the Specifications for the maximum
operating voltage.

P7260 6 GHz 5X/25X Active Probe User Manual

25

Operating Basics

Input Linear Dynamic Range

The P7260 has two attenuation settings that affect dynamic range.
Refer to instructions for manually changing attenuation of the probe,
or use the GPIB commands available on your host instrument.

The probe head amplifier that the P7260 uses has a limited linear
operating range. Refer to Table 6 in the Specifications section for
dynamic range and linearity limits.

Use the DC offset adjustment to maintain the probe within the
dynamic range. Refe r to Table 6 in the Specifications section for the
nominal offset adjustment range of the P7260.

NOTE. The probe c an tolerate input voltages of ±30 V without
damage; however, the linearity error specification does not apply to
input voltages exceeding the dynamic range and offset range
adjustment range. See Figure 4 on page 24.

Electrical Effects of Ground Lead Length

When you are probing a c ircuit, always use as short a ground lead as
possible between the probe head and circuit ground.

The series inductance added by the probe tip and ground lead can
result in a resonant circuit; this circuit may cause parasitic ringing
within the bandwidth of your host instrument. Refer to Figure 5 on
page 27.

Ground Lead Inductance

When you touch the probe tip to a circuit element, you are
introducing a new resistance, capacitanc e, and inductance into the
circuit. Refer to Figure 6 on page 28.

Ringing and rise time degradation can be masked if the frequency
content of the signal degradation is beyond the bandwidth of the host
instrument.

You can determine if ground lead effects may be a problem in your
application if you know the self-inductance (L) and capacitance (C)
of your probe and ground lead. Calculate the approximate resonant
frequency (f

) at which this parasitic circuit will resonate with the

0

following formula:



f

The preceding equation shows that reducing the ground lead
inductance will ra ise the resonant frequency. If your measurements
are affected by ringing, your goal is to lower the inductance of your
ground path until the resulting resonant frequency is well above the
frequency of your measurements.

28

The low-inductance ground contacts, described in Features and
Accessories starting on page 7, can help you reduce the effects of

ground lead inductance on your measurements.

P7260 6 GHz 5X/25X Active Probe User Manual

Electrical Effects of Adapters

The probe tip adapters included with your probe help connect to
different types of components. While these adapters make connec­tions easier, be aware that the adapter you choose may affect the
signal you are measuring, depending on a variety of factors,
including signal frequenc y, source impedance, and lead length.

Use the probe without adapters to optimize step and frequency
response. Using the probe tip adapters adds inductance and
capacitance, which increases step response and aberrations, and leads
to increased ripples in frequency response. These effects increase as
the source impedance increases and measured waveform risetimes
decrease.

Figure 7 illustrates the typical effects on a given signal using some of
the adapters include d with your probe.
