Electronic designs today are increasingly based on high-speed interfaces. This makes it necessary to measure differential and ground-referenced signals. Rohde & Schwarz opens up this application area ...

Download this article in PDF format. Most oscilloscopes ship with 10X attenuation passive probes because this type of probe is well-suited to making measurements across a broad range of applications.

Test probes go a long way toward ensuring accurate, repeatable test results. Here's a look at how both active and passive test probes are evolving to match today's broadening oscilloscope bandwidths.
