New probing products from Agilent

24 November 2010 Test & Measurement

Agilent Technologies has introduced the N2744A T2A Tektronix-to-Agilent probe adapter, allowing engineers to connect Tektronix TekProbe-BNC Level 2 probes to Agilent’s Infiniium and InfiniiVision oscilloscopes.

The adapter provides the necessary probe power, calibration and offset control to the Tektronix probes.

In addition to the probe adapter, Agilent has expanded its offering of oscilloscope probes and accessories with several other new products.

The N2795A 1 GHz and N2796A 2 GHz single-ended active probes feature 1 M input impedance and 1 pF input capacitance for low signal loading. The probes’ built-in headlight helps engineers view small components on their circuits under test. These probes are directly powered by the oscilloscope’s AutoProbe interface and require no external power supply.

The N2887A 36-channel Pro and N2888A 18-channel half-channel InfiniiMax soft touch probe heads connect Agilent soft-touch connectorless probes to the input connectors of the Agilent InfiniiMax I and II series probe amplifiers. The probe heads enable engineers to probe high-density signals with up to 4 GHz of bandwidth. The probes also allow engineers to make the multichannel measurements commonly required in DDR memory testing and in other high-speed applications where space is tight.

The N2893A is a 100 MHz, 15 A AC/DC current probe with AutoProbe interface for InfiniiVision and Infiniium oscilloscopes. The new current probe features auto degauss (demagnetisation) and auto calibration to remove residual magnetism and unwanted DC offset in the probe. This feature helps engineers make more accurate low-level DC current measurements. The N2893A also succeeds in accurately capturing transient or steady-state currents for testing and debugging power electronic devices.
