Product Description

The Tektronix P6245 is a 1.5 GHz (probe only), 10X active FET

probe with less than 1 pF input capacitance. The P6245’s low input

capacitance and high input resistance minimize circuit loading over a

wide bandwidth range. The P6245’s small profile and low-mass head

makes probing crowded circuits by hand fast and easy. The accessory

tips and adapters enable the P6245 to be used on a wide variety of

circuit architectures.

The P6245 is powered through a TEKPROBE interface between the

probe’s compensation box and the oscilloscope. The P6245 may be

used with non-TEKPROBE oscilloscopes and instruments by using

the optional Tektronix 1103 Probe Power Supply.

P6245 Instruction Manual 1–3

Features and Accessories

The P6245 is provided with several features and accessories designed

to make probing and measurement a simpler task. Please take a

moment to familiarize yourself with these items and their uses.

Probe Tip

Socket

Ground

Socket

Stabilization

Notch

Probe Head Assembly. The probe head is

designed for ease of use and high performance.

Its small size makes it easy to handle in tight

areas.

The probe tip socket is sized to easily press onto

0.025 inch pins for direct access. The ground

socket provides a short ground path for high

fidelity ground connections.

The stabilization notch permits you to use

adjacent pins to reduce stresses on the probe

and pins. See pages 1–6 and 2–8 for more

information.

TEKPROBE Interface. The TEKPROBE

interface provides a communication path between

the probe and the oscilloscope. Contact pins

provide power, signal, offset, and probe

characteristic data transfer. See page 4–2 for

more information.

If your oscilloscope does not support the

TEKPROBE interface, you can use the optional

1103 probe power supply as an effective

interface. Contact your local Tektronix representa-

tive for more information.

Push-In Probe Tip

Push-in Probe Tip. Use the push-in probe tip

for general purpose probing by hand. The tip may

also be used as a temporary test point. See page

2–7 for more information.

The push-in probe tip may also be used with the

other socketed leads and adapters.

Features and Accessories

1–4P6245 Instruction Manual

Installing the Push-in Probe Tip. Attach the

push-in probe tip by seating the tip into the probe

tip socket and pushing the tip in until it is seated.

Either end of the tip may be used.

Do not force the tip. Also, be careful not to poke

yourself with the sharp probe-tip. To remove the

tip, gently grab the tip with small pliers and pull

the tip out.

SureFoot probe tip. The SureFoot tip is an

integral probe tip and miniature guide that

enables fault-free probing of fine-pitch SMD

packages. Attach the SureFoot adapters the

same way as the push-in probe tips. They can be

used with any of the socketed accessory leads.

The yellow, 0.050 inch SureFoot tip is compatible

with 50 mil JEDEC packages such as SOIC,

PLCC, CLCC, etc.

The blue, 0.025 inch SureFoot tip is compatible

with 0.65 mm JEDEC and EIAJ packages.

The red, 0.5 mm SureFoot tip is compatible with

EIAJ packages.

Right Angle

Adapter

Right-angle adapter. Use the right-angle

adapter for low-profile probing of 0.025 inch

diameter square pins.

The right-angle adapter allows the P6245 to lie

flat against a circuit board. This enables probing

in vertical circuits such as computer or commu-

nications backplanes, or in tight areas such as

between circuit cards.

The right-angle adapter can be used directly with

the probe head, or attached to the Y-lead adapter

or ground leads.

The right-angle adapter is attached the same way

as the push-in probe tip, and can be easily

removed by hand.

Features and Accessories

P6245 Instruction Manual 1–5

Y-lead

Adapter

“Y-lead” adapter. Use the Y-lead adapter to

extend the physical reach of the probe and

ground when necessary. The Y-lead adapter

accepts any of the probe tips or adapters, and

can be pushed directly onto 0.025 inch pins.

When selecting the grounding connection,

maintain as short a ground path as possible.

Refer to page 2–2 for more information.

To attach the Y-lead adapter, gently press the

lead pins into the probe head tip and ground

receptacles. Using the black lead for ground is

recommended.

3 and 6 inch ground leads. Use the three- and

six-inch ground leads for general probing. The

socketed end of the leads may be connected to

any of the probe tips and adapters, or fitted onto

0.025 inch pins.

To attach the ground leads, press and rotate the

lead pin connector into the ground socket on the

probe head. The lead may be removed by simply

pulling the pin out by hand.

When selecting the grounding connection,

maintain as short a ground path as possible.

Refer to page 2–2 for more information.

Low-inductance ground lead. Use the

low-inductance ground adapter to substantially

reduce ground lead inductance. Because the

ground lead simply touches the ground reference,

you can easily move the probe to different points

on the device under test.

To attach, press the ground lead into the probe

head gound socket.

When selecting the grounding connection,

maintain as short a ground path as possible.

Refer to page 2–2 for more information.

Features and Accessories

1–6P6245 Instruction Manual

Signal Ground

Adapter

FlexLead

Adapter

Signal–Ground Adapter. The signal-ground

adapter is ideal for use with signal/ground pairs

on 0.100 inch header pins (such as FlexLead

adapters).

Attach the signal-ground adapter by gently

pressing it into the ground socket on the probe

head.

Be sure to use the stabilization notch whenever

possible. See page 2–8 for further details.

KlipChip

Y-lead

Adapter

SMT KlipChip. Use the SMT KlipChip test

clips to access fragile, dense circuitry.

KlipChip test clips can be connected to the Y-lead

or three- or six-inch ground leads. Simply press

the lead socket into the KlipChip handle.

The KlipChip body freely turns, allowing better

probe orientation. To reduce stress and provide a

lower profile on components being tested, the

flexible sleeve of the KlipChip bends up to a

35 degree angle.

Color Marker

Bands Color Marker Bands. Attach matching pairs of

the color marker bands onto the cable at the head

and compensation box of each probe. The marker

bands enable quick verification of which probe is

connected to which instrument channel.

P6245 Instruction Manual 1–7

Configuration

The P6245 provides the oscilloscope with the probe model number,

serial number, and attenuation factor. When connected to a

TEKPROBE oscilloscope, display readouts are corrected for the

probe attenuation factor, the instrument input is set to 50 W, and the

coupling is set to DC.

CAUTION. Do not attempt to install the P6245 on a non-TEKPROBE

connector. Damage to the probe and connector may result. If your

oscilloscope does not support the TEKPROBE interface, use the

optional Tektronix 1103 Probe Power Supply.

If the P6245 is used with the Tektronix 1103 Probe Power Supply, be

sure to have a 50 W termination at the oscilloscope. Also, set the

oscilloscope channel coupling to DC.

The probe offset control is controlled by the oscilloscope. If the

oscilloscope used does not support the TEKPROBE interface, the

offset controls on the optional Tektronix 1103 Probe Power Supply

can be used.

Probe Offset

The probe offset is adjustable to permit operation within the probe’s

linear range. Using the offset to cancel DC signal components

enables optimal probe performance. See Figure 1–1 on page 1–8.

NOTE. See your oscilloscope manual for specific instructions on its

operation and offset control.

Configuration

1–8P6245 Instruction Manual

To set the probe offset, follow these steps:

1. Set the oscilloscope coupling to GND.

2. Use the vertical position control to set a zero reference level on

the oscilloscope display.

3. Set the oscilloscope coupling to DC and 5 V/div.

4. Attach the probe to the circuit.

5. Adjust the probe offset to bring the trace to the oscilloscope zero

reference.

6. Change the volts/division setting to the desired range, adjusting

the offset to keep the trace on the zero reference level.

NOTE. The P6245 has a ±10 V offset range. The linear operating

range is ±8 V. See Figure 1–1. Also, see page 2–1 for more

information.

If cursors are used on a TEKPROBE oscilloscope, the zero reference

will be at the probe offset voltage.
