Appendix B: TPP0101 and TPP0201 Series 10X Passive
Probes Information
The TPP0101 & TPP0201 Series 10X Passive Probes are high impedance,
passive probes with 10X attenuation that are designed for use with the following
Tektronix oscilloscopes:
TDS1000C-EDU/TDS2000C oscilloscopes that have 20 pF of input
capacitance. The compensation range of these probes is 15–25 pF.
The p robes have no user- or Tektronix-serviceable parts.
WARNING. Do not float the TPP0101 and TPP0201 probes on any oscilloscope.
Connecting the Probe to the Oscilloscope
Connect the probe as shown in the illustrations below.
Compensating the Probe
Due to variations in oscilloscope input characteristics, the low-frequency
compensation of the probe may need adjustment after moving the probe from
one oscilloscope channel to another.
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:
