When viewed at 500 m/div, the same 400 V square wave shows the probe compensation to be
slightly overpeaked.

Figure 5

When the time/div is decreased to value normally used to view 20 to 150 kHz switchmode power
conversion circuits, the slightly peaked LF compensation appears as a DC level shift.

Figure 6

Viewing a power FET’s saturation voltage with the slightly peaked LF compensation makes the
voltage appear to go negative. In this example the repetition rate of the power supply is 60 kHz.
