The Effects of Passive Probe Ground Leads
This article explains how the inductance of passive probe ground leads can dramatically reduce effective bandwidth, distort measurements, and introduce resonance and frequency-response errors.
Guidance on selecting, configuring, and using probes for accurate high-fidelity measurements. Covers probe loading, bandwidth considerations, grounding techniques, and common measurement mistakes.
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?
