The Tektronix TIVP1, TIVP05, and TIVP02 are IsoVu Generation 2 isolated measurement systems — high voltage differential probes that use power-over-fiber and an optical analog signal path to provide complete galvanic isolation between the measurement system and the device under test. By letting the probe float independently at the common mode voltage, the IsoVu architecture delivers accurate differential measurements up to ±2500 V on reference voltages slewing ±60 kV at 100 V/ns or faster. The Generation 2 design packages this capability at one-fifth the size of first-generation IsoVu probes.

These probes are built for floating measurements in power converter and motor drive designs. Listed applications include half- and full-bridge designs using SiC or GaN, FETs, or IGBTs; floating measurements; power converter design; power device evaluation; switching power supply design; inverter design; motor drive design; electronic ballast design; EMI and ESD troubleshooting; and current shunt measurements. Making high-side measurements in half-bridge power converters is challenging because the source or collector to which the measurements are referenced is slewing rapidly up and down; wide bandgap devices such as SiC and GaN FETs are harder still because they can switch high voltages in a few nanoseconds, and the resulting common mode noise leaks into the differential measurement and hides VGS and VDS detail.

## Compare Other Models in This Series

The IsoVu Generation 2 family — TIVP1, TIVP05, and TIVP02 — shares a single isolated measurement architecture and differs primarily in bandwidth. Tektronix offers the series at bandwidths of 200 MHz, 500 MHz, and 1 GHz so the buyer can match isolation performance to budget and application. All three models use the same power-over-fiber optical isolation, the same ±60 kV common mode voltage range, and the same sensor tip cable ecosystem.

Across the series, the differential input voltage range (up to ±2500 V), the offset range (up to ±2500 V), and the 160 dB common mode rejection at DC are set by the selected sensor tip cable rather than by the model. A buyer therefore chooses the model for its bandwidth and rise-time class, then selects tip cables for the required differential voltage range.

Each new model below is its own dedicated product page with condition-matched pricing. Select the model whose bandwidth and rise-time class fit your measurement, then choose the page that matches the condition you need.

The models separate on bandwidth and rise time. The TIVP1 provides 1 GHz bandwidth with a 450 ps rise time, the TIVP05 provides 500 MHz with an 850 ps rise time, and the TIVP02 provides 200 MHz with a 2 ns rise time. See the comparison table below for the per-model values.

Beyond bandwidth and rise time, the three models are specified identically: each carries the ±60 kV common mode voltage range, the up-to-±2500 V differential and offset ranges set by sensor tip cable, common mode input capacitance under 2 pF, and differential DC gain accuracy better than 2%. The choice between them is a bandwidth-versus-budget decision rather than a difference in isolation capability.

> **Important:** Use only the sensor tip cables listed.

> **Important:** Maximum non-destructive differential voltage is derated with frequency; refer to the Maximum differential input voltage vs. frequency derating graph in the TIVP Series IsoVu Measurement System User Manual.

> **Important:** The standard delivery includes the TIVPMX10X MMCX probe tip (±50 V differential range). Higher-voltage sensor tip cables — TIVPMX50X (±250 V), TIVPSQ100X (±500 V), and TIVPWS500X (±2.5 kV) — are recommended accessories that must be ordered separately to reach the probe's higher differential voltage ranges; additional 0.100" and 0.200" spaced square-pin tips are required for applications that require greater than ±250 V differential voltage.

> **Important:** Probes and accessories are not covered by the oscilloscope warranty and Service Offerings; refer to the datasheet of each probe and accessory model for its unique warranty and calibration terms.
