Rigol PVA7250 - 2.5GHz Active Probe

PVA7000, with more than 2.5GHz bandwidth, is an active probe for high frequency application. It can be used to measure differential and single-ended signals with better common mode rejection. PVA7000 uses plug-on socket probe head and supports 3 types of interchangeable probe heads to optimize the performance and usability. Besides, its replaceable probe tip prolongs the service life of the probe and the probe tip spacing can be precisely adjusted to fit different test point spacings.

PVA7000 is compatible with the auto-identification port of RIGOL MSO/DS7000/MSO8000 series oscilloscope and can be recognized and configured automatically by this port. Its snap-in BNC connector enables easier connection with the oscilloscope.

PVA7000 provides various accessories and options, as well as multiple replaceable components which make it applicable to be used in different tests and measurements.

Active Probe Amplifier

The active probe amplifier, with more than 2.5GHz bandwidth, is a main component of the active probe. One end of the active probe amplifier can be connected to the MSO8000 series oscilloscope and the other end can be connected to the desired probe head.

When connecting a probe head to an active probe amplifier, push it straight in. For single-ended probe, when connecting them, pay attention to their polarities. If the polarity is reversed, the performance of the active probe would be undermined and the active probe might even be damaged.
