18 in stock

Overview

The PR150B is a 150MHz passive oscilloscope probe designed for general-purpose signal measurement. It features a fixed 10:1 attenuation ratio and is rated for CAT II environments, providing a balance between bandwidth and safety for standard electronic troubleshooting. The probe includes a 48-inch cable, offering ample reach for benchtop testing and system-level diagnostics.

Why Choose This Part

The PR150B offers a generous 1.2-meter cable length, which is beneficial when the oscilloscope is positioned far from the device under test. Its 150MHz bandwidth exceeds standard entry-level probes, providing better fidelity for modern high-speed digital signals. The CAT II 300V rating ensures a baseline of safety for most low-voltage electronic design and maintenance tasks.

Applications

General Purpose Troubleshooting
Ideal for analyzing digital and analog signals on PCBs where bandwidth requirements are below 150MHz.
Power Supply Ripple Measurement
The 10:1 attenuation allows for safe measurement of switching nodes and ripple voltages up to 300V.
Educational Laboratories
A durable and cost-effective probe suitable for student use in introductory electronics and physics labs.
Embedded System Debugging
Used to verify SPI, I2C, and UART signal integrity on microcontrollers and peripheral devices.
