xx Operating Information

The TPP0100 & TPP0200 Series 10X Passive Probes are
high impedance, passive probes with 10X attenuation
that are designed for use with the following Tektronix
oscilloscopes:

Use the TPP0100 and TPP0200 probes with
DPO/MSO2000 Series oscilloscopes
13 pF of input capacitance. The compensation range of
these probes is 8–18 pF.

Use the TPP0101 and TPP0201 probes with
TDS1000/2000 oscilloscopes that have 20 pF of input
capacitance. The compensation range of these probes
is 15–25 pF.

The probes have no user- or Tektronix-serviceable parts.

WARNING. Do not float these probes (TPP0100 and

TPP0200 Series) on any oscilloscope except TPS2000
Series Oscilloscopes.

ting the reference lead above

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 oscilloscope channel that you
plan to use for your measurements.

2. Connect the probe to the probe compensation output
terminals on the oscilloscope front panel.

WARNING. To avoid electric shock, only connect to the

Probe Comp signal on the oscilloscope when making
this adjustment.

3. Push AUTOSET or otherwise adjust your oscilloscope
to display a stable waveform.

4. Adjust the trimmer in the probe until you see a perfectly
flat-top square wave on the display. (See illustration.)

WARNING. To avoid electric shock, only use the

insulated adjustment tool when making compensation
adjustments.

Connecting the P ro be to the Circuit

Use the standard accessories included with the probe to
connect to your circuit.

WARNING. To avoid electric shock when using the probe

or accessories, keep fingers behind the finger guard of
the probe body and accessories.

To reduce risk of shock, ensure the ground lead and
ground spring are fully mated before connecting the
probe to the circuit under test.

Ground spring

Thegroundspring
minimizes aberrations
on high-frequency signals
caused by the inductance of
the ground path, giving you
measurements with good
signal fidelity.

Attach the spring to the
ground band on the probe
tip. You can bend the spring
out to ~0.75 in. away from
the signal test point.

Compensating the Probe

Due to variatio

ns in oscilloscope input characteristics,
the low-frequency compensation of the probe may need
adjustment af
