PP009 Passive Probe
10 922222-00 Rev A
Use and Maintenance
This probe is a high quality, precision instrument. To maintain accuracy and
signal fidelity, mechanical shock should be avoided, as well as damage to the
cable through excessive bending.
To achieve the small 2.5 mm tip size, the input tip diameter is narrower than
those in larger probes. Avoid placing excessive force sideways on the tip.
Should the tip become damaged, it may be replaced by the user using the
procedure listed on the last page.
Other maintenance and component replacement should be referred to qualified
personnel.
Cleaning
The outside of the probe should cleaned with a soft cloth dampened with either
deionized / distilled water or isopropyl alcohol. Allow the surface to dry
completely before returning the probe to service. Never immerse the probe in
any liquid.
Use of PCB Adapter
The PCB adapter (Teledyne LeCroy P/N PK1-5MM-107) is intended to be
designed into and permanently installed in circuit boards to provide a reliable,
high frequency test point which eliminates the need to hand hold the probe.
