The Tektronix P6013A Probe has an attenuation factor of 1000:1 which enables the user to observe waveforms or pulses with a peak amplitude of as much as 12 kV up to 100 kHz in frequency, or DC voltages up to 12 kV without damage to the probe or the oscilloscope.
The P6013A Probe is designed for electrical and mechanical protection of its internal components, and is covered with thermoplastic offering high impact strength. Weight of the probe alone is ten ounces. The cable has a resistive center conductor, with the value of the resistance chosen to provide optimum performance of the probe. The cable assembly may be removed and replaced.
The electrical components in the compensating box of the P6013A includes four variable trimmer capacitors and two potentiometers. The RC networks in the box are arranged to affect the observed shape of the waveform at different but overlapping points during the first 300 µs of the pulse.
Five of these adjustments compensate for variations in input capacitance from one instrument to another. For accuracy in pulse and transient measurements, the probe should be checked frequently.
