The Keysight DP0013A is a 1.7 GHz differential active probe engineered for high-speed power and digital system measurements. It delivers superior signal fidelity in demanding applications including motor drives and automotive differential bus measurements. The probe integrates with Keysight oscilloscopes via the AutoProbe1 interface, which provides power delivery, DC offset adjustment, and automatic attenuation control for streamlined operation.
Technical Specifications
• Bandwidth: 1.7 GHz
• Rise Time: 300 ps
• Input Impedance: 1.7 MΩ / 1.5 pF
• Maximum Differential Measurement Range: ±42 V DC + AC peak (85:1 attenuation); ±4.2 V (17:1 attenuation)
• Offset Adjustment Range: ±60 V
• Cable Length: 1.3 meters
• Operating Temperature: 5 to 40°C
– Key Features
Automatic attenuation selection optimizes dynamic range across measurement scales. The 17:1 attenuation engages at vertical settings ≤2 V/div; 85:1 attenuation activates above 2 V/div. High input impedance (1.7 MΩ) minimizes loading effects on circuits under test. The probe supports both differential and single-ended measurements from a single probe head. Comprehensive accessory kit includes socketed and solder-in Y-lead pairs, microcircuit hook clips, adjustable probing browsers, and ground leads, packaged in a protective hard case.
– Typical Applications
Motor drive analysis, automotive differential bus characterization, power electronics verification, and high-speed digital signal integrity measurements.
– Compatibility & Integration
The DP0013A operates with InfiniiVision X-Series oscilloscopes (3000T, 4000, and 6000) and Infiniium models including EXR-, MXR-, S-, UXR-, V-, Z-, Q-, and 90000 X-Series platforms. UXR/V/Z/Q/90000 X-Series instruments require the Keysight N5442A adapter. All compatible scopes must provide selectable 50 Ω input terminations and AutoProbe1 support. Optional accessories include the DP0020A deskew kit, N2786A XY probe positioner, and N2787A articulating 3D positioner.
