The Tektronix P6245 is an active FET oscilloscope probe designed for high-speed signal acquisition with minimal device-under-test (DUT) loading. Delivering a bandwidth of 1.5 GHz and a fast rise time of less than 250 ps, it offers an ideal solution for testing modern digital system designs, including CMOS, BiCMOS, ECL, GaAs, and TTL logic. Equipped with the TEKPROBE BNC interface, the probe connects directly to compatible Tektronix oscilloscopes, drawing power directly from the host instrument without requiring external power supplies or cables.
