HP 85024A High-Frequency Probe, 300 kHz to 3 GHz

The HP 85024A high-frequency probe makes it easy to perform in-circuit measurements. An input capacitance of only 0.7 pF shunted by 1 megohm of resistance permits high frequency probing without adversely loading the circuit under test. Excellent frequency response and unity gain guarantee high accuracy in swept measurements with this probe. High probe sensitivity and low distortion levels allow measurements to be made while taking advantage of the full dynamic range of HP RF analyzers. Spectrum analyzers that supply probe power from the front panel include the HP 8590 series, HP 8560 series, and the HP 70000 series. RF network analyzers such as the HP 8753E, 8752C, 8751A, 3577A and 4395A are also directly compatible. You can use the HP 85024A with other instruments by using the HP 11899A probe power supply or any dual 15 V, 130 mA supply.
