TEK P6202A Active FET Probe
Features
The P6201 and P6202A are Low Circuit Loading Active Signal Acquisition
probes for Tektronix 400 Series, 2400 Series and 7000 Series Families
of Oscilloscopes.
The P6201 and P6202A with Active FET devices in their inputs provide
very high input impedances.
Both the P6201 and P6202A probes provide a wide linear dynamic input
range for accessing most digital device families using today's logic voltage
levels.
The P6201 provides unity gain (1X) and is the best general purpose FET
probe within its voltage range. Plug-on attenuator heads provide wider
dynamic ranges (10X and 100X), while maintaining the oscilloscope readout
factor.
Wider dynamic input range for the P6202A is achieved by an optional 10X
attenuator head which provides 100X attenuation.
Both the P6201 and P6202A probes provide a variable DC Offset function
which is set via the offset controls on the probe's compensation box to
bring signals (those within the offset control range) into the dynamic
range of the probe.
AC or DC coupling selection is available on the P6201 and P6202A FET
Probes. When AC coupled, the DC voltage component is blocked, allowing
viewing of superimposed signals.
A self-contained selectable 50 Ohm termination switch allows the
P6201 or P6202A to be terminated into a 50 Ohm or 1 megaohm oscilloscope
inputs.
Power for the P6201 and P6202A is supplied by the 400 Series, 2400 Series
and 7000 Series mainframes through the optional Probe Power Jack or the
1101A Power Supply.
The P6201 or P6202A may also be used with other 50 Ohm and 1 megaohm
input real-time oscilloscopes, sampling systems, spectrum analyzers and
counters via the 1101A and appropriate interface adapters (SMA to BNC,
GR to BNC, etc.).
The 1101A power supply provides external power to probes when the oscilloscope
used does not have the capability to supply probe power.
The 1101A has two power receptacles that will power up to two independent
probes, such as the P6201, P6202A and P6230.
