Hi-Z+ Passive Probing System

 

Keysight offers a family of single-ended passive probes offers the performance expected of an active probe with the usability expected from a passive probe. The Hi-Z+ probes support higher input voltages and support for simplified probing of MMCX connectors. All three of these probes leverage the PP0004A Hi-Z+ Adapter to interface with our current generation oscilloscopes with AutoProbe 1 interfaces. There are also a variety of accessory kits available for extra parts or replacements.

 

Passive Probes

 

Keysight offers a broad range of passive probes with various attenuation ratios and input impedance specifications to optimize the dynamic range and loading considerations of your oscilloscope ground reference measurements. These passive probes are compatible with most Keysight oscilloscopes that have either standard BNC inputs or AutoProbe1/BNC input connections.

 

High-Frequency Differential Active Probes < 10 GHz

 

Probing high-speed differential buses typically requires differential active probes. Keysight offers a broad range of differential active probing solutions for your unique measurement requirements based on bandwidth, dynamic measurement range, and probe loading.

 

AutoProbe interface

 

Keysight’s AutoProbe interface provides the following:

 

• DC voltage to power active probe circuitry

• Automatic detection of probe attenuation

• Automatic control of selectable probe attenuation on some probes

• Probe DC offset on many probes
