Tektronix P6330 4GHz Active Probe

The Tektronix P6330 is a 4 GHz active probe designed for high-speed digital and analog signal measurements on advanced electronic designs. It delivers signal fidelity through low input capacitance (0.6 pF differential) and high input resistance (100 kΩ ± 1%), minimizing loading effects on the device under test. The probe’s compact 0.5 mm tip diameter enables probing in densely populated circuit board environments.
