STANDARD
OSCILLOSCOPE PROBE
A standard oseilloseope
probe,
rather
than
the test
leads supplied,
is very
handy for many
measurements.
A
XtO
probe
attenuates
the
measured signal
l0:1 and
extends the voltage
measurement range. It also offers
the advan-
tages of low eapaeitanee and high resistanee
for less
eircuit loading
when making
measure-
ments in high impedanee
or
high frequeney
eireuits.
A
X1O/Direct
probe
offers all
the
advantages
of a
fixed X10
probe, plus
the
ability to switeh to unattenuated
(Direct)
operation for low
level
signal measurements.
The
Model 1403A
and 1405
Oseilloseopes
ean
be
easily adapted to use a fixed X10
or
X10/Direet
oseilloseope
probe.

oseilloseope
probes
use a BNC eonneetor.
