Pico TETRIS® active probe is a unique inline probing system. The unique design of the TETRIS 1000 allows for contact to adjacent square pins in 2.54mm pitch simultaneously. This is possible because the T-shaped probe housing allows many probes to be positioned next to each other, permitting multiple measurements to be taken at the same time. The TETRIS 1000 is independent of any particular system and, with its standard BNC connector, can be plugged into any measuring instrument with a 50Ω input. With an input resistance of 1MΩ and an input capacitance of 0.9pF, the TETRIS 1000 probe is suitable for measurements in all frequency ranges. Unlike passive probes, the TETRIS 1000 active probe offers a high input impedance into the GHz range. Its characteristics make it suitable for most daily measurements. If the measuring instrument does not have 50Ω coupling, an external 50Ω terminator such as a TA051 ( 898-6791 ) can be used, in which case the system bandwidth may be reduced.
