Inspecting the Probe
N2790A Differential Voltage Probe
The N2790A differential probe allows you to safely measure high-voltage floating
circuits with the oscilloscope grounded. It is ideal for many applications such as
motor speed controls, power supply designs, and electronic high-power
converters. The N2790A offers sufficient dynamic range and bandwidth for your
application to make the floating measurements found in high-speed power
electronic circuits safely and accurately.
With 100 MHz bandwidth, switchable attenuation of 50:1 and 500:1, and a
maximum differential voltage input of 1400V (DC + peak AC), it provides the
versatility for a broad range of applications including high-voltage circuits. Each
probe comes with sharp browser probe tips for use on small components and in
tight places, alligator clips for connecting to larger cables, and pincher clips.
The probe is powered by the autoprobe interface.
