Overview

The ZD1000 is a 1 GHz active differential probe designed for high-fidelity signal acquisition with Teledyne LeCroy ProBus-equipped oscilloscopes. It features a high 1 Mohm input resistance and an ultra-low 1 pF input capacitance to minimize circuit loading during high-frequency measurements. With a 10:1 attenuation ratio and a +/-8 V dynamic range, it provides accurate differential signal analysis for modern embedded systems.

Why Choose This Part

The ZD1000 offers a 2 percent DC gain accuracy and a wide +/-30 V common-mode voltage range for versatile probing. Its ProBus interface ensures transparent attenuation and automatic scaling, while the 38 nV/rtHz noise performance allows for clean captures of low-amplitude signals.

Applications

High-Speed Digital Debugging
Measuring differential signals on high-speed serial buses and clock lines up to 1 GHz.
Power Integrity Analysis
Characterizing small differential voltage drops and noise on power rails with high precision.
Signal Integrity Verification
Evaluating pulse shapes and timing margins in circuits where low capacitive loading is critical to maintain signal shape.
