    Refer to Figure 12 on page 19 for a graph of frequency versus input impedance. The probe has virtually no loading effect on sources with relatively low impedance and low frequency. P5102 Instructions...
  • Page 13: Adjustment Procedures

    Adjustment Procedures The low-frequency (LF) compensation of the P5102 probe must be checked every time the probe is connected to a different oscilloscope input. The high-frequency (HF) compensation should be checked if the probe was repaired or fails to meet rated bandwidth specifications.

    2. Put the probe into a plastic bag or wrap to protect it from dampness in transit. 3. Place the probe into the box and stabilize it with light packing material. 4. Seal the carton with shipping tape. P5102 Instructions...
  • Page 23: Specifications

    Specifications that are not warranted are typical (Tables 3 and 4) and are provided as general information for your convenience. The specifications apply to a P5102 probe installed on a Tektronix THS 720 oscilloscope. The instrument must have a warm-up period of at least 10 minutes and be in an environment that does not exceed the limits described in Table 5.
