ADA400A
Overview
The ADA400A is an active differential preamplifier designed to extend the sensitivity of Tektronix oscilloscopes for measuring low-amplitude signals. It provides high common-mode rejection and adjustable gain, making it essential for capturing millivolt-level signals in noisy environments. The unit integrates seamlessly with the TEKPROBE BNC interface for power and scaling.
Why Choose This Part
It offers high differential sensitivity and excellent common-mode rejection (CMRR) to isolate small signals from large ground offsets. The plug-and-play TEKPROBE BNC interface eliminates the need for external power supplies or manual scale factor adjustments on compatible oscilloscopes.
Applications
Getting Started
Connect the ADA400A directly to a Tektronix oscilloscope equipped with a TEKPROBE BNC interface. Configure the gain settings on the preamplifier to match the signal amplitude and ensure the oscilloscope input impedance is set appropriately if the auto-scaling does not trigger.
