  • Page 21: Probe Operation

    During factory calibration and performance verification, each probe amplifier has a response file created and stored on-board. When the probe is connected to your Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscope, the response file is read by your oscilloscope and a combined optimized probe + oscilloscope response is created for your particular oscilloscope and channel to which the probe is connected.

    However,if you wish to de-embed the effect of probe loading on your circuit, you can also use Teledyne LeCroy’s Virtual Probe option. This option allows you to select the probe tip from a list of supported tips. Your selection applies a corresponding s-parameter file that is derived from the...
  • Page 23: Handling The Probe

    WaveLink Series Differential Probe (13-25 GHz) H a ndling t he Probe The WaveLink series probe is a precision test instrument. Exercise care when handling and storing the probe. Always handle the probe by the platform/cable assembly. Avoid putting excessive strain on any cable or interconnect lead or exposing the probe cables to sharp bends.
  • Page 24 Operator's Manual Do not use pliers or any other tools to tighten the collar. Remove the Amplifier Module by loosening the threaded collar from the module and pulling the two assemblies apart. By design, the amplifier module works with the WL-PLINK-A or WL-2.92MM platform/cable assembly and either the Dxx05-SI Lead or Dxx05-PT Tip .
