scope probes
"Swells8044" wrote in message
... I was given a BK1570a scope but I need probes can these be homebrewed?Im a newby to scopes so this is a learn as you go project.Any help is appreciated. Depends on what you plan to be looking at. For audio, you can probably get away with whatever wire you have around, but don't try to do any critical measurements. For RF or digital work, no, you can't homebrew those probes, any more than you can homebrew the scope itself. An oscilloscope probe is part of a precision measurement system, and the actual requirements that it must meet, to pass a complex signal UNDISTORTED IN ANY WAY, are TOUGH. Last time I bought probes, commodity probes were running around forty bucks each, new. And worth it. Real Tektronix probes, new, will cost you a LOT more, and they're worth every penny. |
