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 a re 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 probes have no user- or Tektronix-serviceable parts.
WARNING. Do not float the TPP0101 a nd TPP0201 probes on any oscilloscope.
Connecting the Probe to the Oscilloscope
Connect the p robe as shown i n 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 b etween the leading and trailing edges, perform the following steps to
optimize low-frequency compensation:
