Active11 in stock

Overview

The PR500B is a high-performance passive oscilloscope probe designed for precision measurements up to 500MHz. It features a fixed 10:1 attenuation ratio and is rated for CAT II applications up to 300V. The probe includes a standard BNC interface and a 48-inch cable for comfortable reach across the test bench.

Why Choose This Part

This probe offers a high 500MHz bandwidth and a 10:1 attenuation ratio for reduced circuit loading. Its 48-inch cable length provides flexibility in large hardware setups, while the 300V CAT II rating ensures safety during standard AC/DC measurements.

Applications

High-Speed Signal Analysis
Validating clock signals and high-speed data lines in digital circuits requiring up to 500MHz bandwidth.
Power Rail Characterization
Measuring switching noise and ripple on power supplies where 300V CAT II safety margins are required.
General Purpose Troubleshooting
Daily lab use for debugging embedded systems and analog signal paths with a standard BNC oscilloscope interface.
