    Specifications Specifications The specifications shown apply to the THDP/TMDP series probes installed on Tektronix MSO/DSO4000 oscilloscopes. When a probe is used with another oscilloscope, the oscilloscope must have an input impedance of 1 MΩ and a bandwidth equal to or greater than the probe. The probe must have a warm-up period of at least 20 minutes and be in an environment that does not exceed the limits described.
