The Tektronix P6418 is a logic analyzer probe engineered for high-fidelity digital signal capture with TLA600, TLA700, and TLA5000 series analyzers. It delivers 16 data channels plus one clock/data channel, enabling comprehensive multi-signal debugging and validation across complex electronic designs. The probe supports both 0.100 inch and 2 mm pin spacing via podlet connectors or lead sets, providing flexible connectivity to industry-standard test points. With 20 kΩ input resistance and low capacitive loading, the P6418 minimizes circuit intrusion while preserving signal integrity across logic families operating within a 7.5 Vp-p dynamic range. A 1.8 m cable connects the probe head to the analyzer, positioned to reduce noise coupling and measurement artifacts.
