Product Summary
The RP2060 is a power/voltage rail probe designed for high-sensitivity oscilloscope measurements on DC power rails. It provides 2 GHz bandwidth, 220 ps risetime, nominal 1.2x attenuation and a wide ±60 V offset range while maintaining a ±800 mV input dynamic range.

• DC Input Resistance: RP2060 — 50 kΩ | RP4060 — 50 kΩ

Key Features

• 2 GHz bandwidth
• 220 ps risetime
• ±60 V offset range
• ±800 mV input dynamic range
• 1.2x attenuation
• ±100 V non-destruct voltage

Large Offset Range
The ±60 V offset allows the DC level of a power rail to be placed near the vertical center of the oscilloscope display at high-sensitivity gain settings, enabling accurate observation of small signal variations within the ±800 mV dynamic range.

Low Attenuation and Noise
Nominal 1.2x attenuation, combined with a DC 50 Ω coupling to the oscilloscope, minimizes additive noise and is especially effective with HDO oscilloscopes to achieve lowest noise at high sensitivity.

High DC Input Impedance
A nominal 50 kΩ DC input resistance reduces probe loading on power rails, improving measurement accuracy and preserving signal fidelity.

Wide Assortment of Tips and Leads
The probe ships with solder-in leads and coaxial cables featuring MCX and U.FL PCB receptacle mounts. A browser tip is available separately. Additional receptacles and leads can be purchased as accessories and left connected in-circuit for quick access to different signals during testing and validation.

Optional Browser Tip
An optional 500 MHz browser tip provides a 50 Ω tip impedance with 1x attenuation via a pass-through 0 Ω resistor. The accessory includes 450 Ω and 950 Ω resistors to configure the tip as a conventional 10x or 20x transmission-line probe.
