Introduction
The ADP30x family of high voltage active differential probes is safe, easy-to-use,
and ideally suited for power measurements.
The 20 MHz ADP300 is perfect for troubleshooting low frequency power circuits,
and other circuits where the reference potential is elevated from ground or the
location of ground is unknown.
The 100 MHz ADP305 is designed for measuring high-speed floating voltages
found in today’s power electronics, like switching power supplies.
With the ProBus interface, the ADP30x becomes an integral part of the
oscilloscope. For the ADP305, the attenuation, offset, and bandwidth limit are all
controlled from the oscilloscope’s front panel or by means of remote control
commands. This means that the complete measurement setup can be saved and
recalled by the oscilloscope and all measurement values will be correct. The
oscilloscope provides power to the probe, so there is no need to worry about a
separate power supply or changing batteries.
The sensitivity of the ADP300 ranges from 1 V/div to 350 V/div; and the
sensitivity for the ADP305 ranges from 200 mV/div to 350 V/div.
Attenuation is automatically selected by the oscilloscope to either ÷100 or
÷1000.
