Pico’s ergonomically designed oscilloscope probes are suitable for use with all major brands of oscilloscopes as well as the Pico range of PC oscilloscopes.

These high-quality passive scope probes offer accurate measurements at a low cost and are ideal for general-purpose use, whilst the active differential scope probe allows you to make floating voltage measurements using a standard oscilloscope.

Whether you require a passive or an active scope probe – the Pico range offer high-performance at an affordable price.

Also Available: attenuators and terminators for use with your oscilloscope.



60 MHz Oscilloscope probe x1/x10

This high quality general purpose oscilloscope probe, has a 60MHz bandwidth. A two position slide switch allows attenuation of either x1 or x10 to be selected. Please note that the x10 function will not work with the ADC-10 or ADC-12 as the input impedance of these devices is not the same as a standard oscilloscope.

Differential oscilloscope probe X10/X100

The ADF25A is an active differential oscilloscope probe. The probe permits the measurement of signals which are not referenced to earth using a conventional earthed oscilloscope. This enables mains voltages to be tested. It is possible to measure and observe the waveforms of three phase supplies or the gate / control signals of semiconductor circuits. It is ideal for investigation of motor speed controls, uninterruptible power supplies, switch mode power supplies and process controllers.

High-voltage differential oscilloscope probes

differential oscilloscope probes

The TA042, TA043 and TA044 are active differential oscilloscope probes. They let you use a conventional earthed oscilloscope to measure signals that are not referenced to ground, including mains voltages. They can also be used to measure and observe the waveforms of three-phase supplies or the gate and control signals of semiconductor circuits. They are ideal for investigating motor speed controls, uninterruptible power supplies, switch mode power supplies and process controllers.
