High bandwidth, high sensitivity, very low noise and an extra-large offset compensation make the RT-ZPR20/40 power rail probes excellent probes for power integrity measurements. An integrated highly accurate DC voltmeter provides instantaneous DC voltage readout.
The RT-ZPR40 power rail probe with 4 GHz bandwidth targets embedded mobile and IoT devices, it can uncover coupled signals in 2.4 GHz ISM, 3 GHz LTE and higher RF bands.
The new RT-ZPR40 offers a 4 GHz bandwidth with a direct SMA connection or a 50 Ω pigtail coax connection to uncover such problems. The probe is ideal for use with the 4 GHz and 6 GHz RTO2000 oscilloscopes. This combination allows the user to take advantage of the oscilloscope’s powerful FFT functionality and serial protocol decoding. Joerg Fries, Vice President Market Segments for T&M at Rohde & Schwarz, states: “The 4 GHz probe enables scope users to find EMI issues on power rails that they were previously unable to isolate.” If 4 GHz bandwidth is not necessary, the RT-ZPR20 probe with 2 GHz bandwidth is an attractive alternative.

Benefits |
|
Detect Smallest Disturbance Signals even at High DC Voltage Levels | The new RT-ZPR40 and RT-ZPR20 probes both offer exceptionally low inherent noise and highest sensitivity with an attenuation factor of 1:1.
With their offset capability, the probes can measure at offset voltages up to 60 V, making them suitable for a wide variety of power rails.
|
Integrated DC Voltmeter to Verify Tightest Tolerance Windows | The integrated high-precision DC voltmeter verifies DC tolerance windows while simultaneously measuring the power supply's DC component with 0.1% accuracy.
Both the reading and the signal voltage are transmitted to the oscilloscope and displayed.
This allows users to measure the DC level and ripple in parallel when qualifying power supplies for highly sensitive electronic components such as CPUs and FPGAs.
They see at a glance whether the ripple voltages lie within the often very tight power supply tolerances.
