High-Frequency Probe Compensation
The probe high-frequency compensation should seldom require
adjustment; however, your probe may require high-frequency
adjustment if any of the following are true:
H the probe has high-frequency aberrations
H the probe does not perform at the rated bandwidth
H you have installed the probe on an oscilloscope having an input
capacitance near the limits of the probe compensation range (See
Table 1.)
To perform the high-frequency compensation adjustment you will
need a signal source that has all of the following characteristics:
>1 V
p-p
H square-wave output at 1 MHz
H fast rise output with rise time less than 1 ns
H output properly terminated
6
1 MHz
