The Teledyne LeCroy HFP2500 is a high-performance passive probe for signal integrity measurements in high-speed digital and analog applications. It integrates with Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscopes via ProBus interface, enabling direct probe offset control from the scope’s front panel. The probe delivers 2.5 GHz bandwidth with minimal circuit loading through low input capacitance (0.7 pF) and high input resistance (100 kΩ), preserving signal fidelity in demanding test environments.
