Platform/Cable Assembly
The platform/cable assembly forms the
foundation of the probe and provides
an attachment for the probe amplifier to
the oscilloscope. It is a ProLink
compatible platform/cable assembly
with a variety of accessories.
WL - PLINK platform/cable assembly
The platform/cable assembly:
l
Provides power to the probe amplifier from
the oscilloscope.
l
Communicates to the oscilloscope the
identifying characteristics of the amplifier
that is connected to the probe so that the
oscilloscope channel can be set to the
correct probe attenuation value
automatically. Software prompts you to
specify the type of tip connected to the
amplifier when this occurs.
l
Transmits the amplifier output signal along
a well-defined low loss transmission line
into the oscilloscope input, and terminates
the probe appropriately at that point.
