The Tektronix P6205 is an active 10X FET oscilloscope probe designed for high-frequency measurements up to 750 MHz with minimal circuit loading. Utilizing a TEKPROBE Level 2 interface, it communicates directly with compatible Tektronix oscilloscopes, which power the probe automatically and adjust scaling and termination settings accordingly.
