High quality oscilloscope probes?
« on: October 09, 2017, 06:53:51 pm »
Any recommendations on high quality oscilloscope probes (150MHz+ BW, 1x-10x)? Looking for something with a decent awg wires, good BNC connector, good probe tip that does not require pressing the connection to get a signal on the scope.

I like Texas probes for their low cost.  They OEM them for other manufacturers like Keysight.  I would provide an Ebay link but their search facilities are down.

Something like this, perhaps: http://uk.farnell.com/tektronix/p6248/probe-oscilloscope/dp/4352610
There are lies, damned lies, statistics - and ADC/DAC specs.
Glider pilot's aphorism: "there is no substitute for span". Retort: "There is a substitute: skill+imagination. But you can buy span".

Look around to see if you can find some Wittig W202 probes. Bought 10 packs of them of them a couple of years back but you'll have to kill me before I hand 'em over. Really nice quality, flat to 200MHz easily and cheap as the Chinese crap ones. They are OEM by Texas.
