The HP/Agilent 10020A Resistive Divider Probe Kit is a precision signal probing system engineered for measuring fast-transition-time signals within high-impedance circuits. It integrates directly with 50 Ω oscilloscope inputs and extends compatibility to non-50 Ω systems when paired with a 50 Ω feedthrough termination such as the Agilent 10100C. The probe kit delivers low input resistance and minimal capacitance, ensuring high-fidelity signal acquisition across diverse measurement applications.
