Sensitive rail-collapse measurements

12-bit resolution all the time plus 0.5% gain accuracy ensures unmatched precision for sensitive measurements, such as rail collapse characterization. Long memory up to 5 Gpts/ch permits extremely long acquisitions for complex cause-effect analysis.

WavePro HD performs best when combined with the Active Voltage Rail Probes but it can even help you get the most out of 10x passive probes.

Accurate ground-bounce and on-die measurements

Up to 8 GHz bandwidth at 20 GS/s means accurate characterization of high-speed on-die effects such as ground bounce, while exceptionally low noise enables identification and root-cause analysis of low-level noise sources.

Don't Let Ground Bounce Ruin Your Day, Dr. Eric Bogatin explains how to avoid it in this on-demand webinar.

Detailed PDN spectral characterization

WavePro HD's low noise floor at full 8 GHz bandwidth allows extremely detailed spectral analysis of the PDN noise environment. The 20 GS/s sampling rate results in a generous spectral span. Spectral analysis on 250 Mpt waveforms provides the highest resolution bandwidth possible.

img-power-rail-probe

Large offset range

+/-60 V offset permits the DC signal to be displayed in the vertical center of the oscilloscope grid even at high-sensitivity gain settings. It has a maximum +/-800 mV dynamic range.

Low attenuation and loading

Active Voltage Rail Probes has a nominal 1.2x attenuation for minimum noise. 50 kΩ impedance using the 50 Ω input effectively eliminates rail loading.

Assortment of tips and leads

A wide assortment of standard tips and leads makes it easy to connect to multiple probing points. Optional hand-held browser available.

Lowest noise and highest precision

HDOs have 12-bit resolution all the time, with an exceptionally low noise floor due to an inherently low-noise architecture.

The 0.5% gain accuracy results in unmatched measurement precision at high sensitivities.

Get 200 MHz to 8 GHz bandwidths at full sample rates of up to 20 GS/s.

Long acquisition time

Up to 5 Gpts/ch lets you capture 500 ms at high sample rate to see both long term trends and transient events.

Navigating long acquisitions is fast and responsive whether using touchscreen or front panel controls.

Large offset range

HDO offset is ±1.6 V at 1 mV/div, ±4 V at 5 mV/div, allowing you to vertically center and view power rails at high sensitivities.

Use home-made coaxial probes or get the best possible result from passive probes.
