How to Test the CMRR of Differential Probes
A simple in-circuit test reveals how a differential probe’s CMRR behaves across frequencies and how closely it matches published specifications in real measurement environments.
What Every Oscilloscope User Needs to Know About Transmission Lines
Fast-rising signals can introduce transmission line reflections that appear as ringing on an oscilloscope, but proper 50-ohm termination can eliminate these artifacts.
Using 50-Ohm Coax From DUT to Oscilloscope
What if we remove the probes from the equation by connecting our DUT's output directly to the oscilloscope's analog input using a 3-ft. 50-Ω coaxial cable?
