    - Attenuation and input parameters: Support 1X/10X attenuation switching, providing more flexible measurement range selection. At 10X setting, it features higher input resistance and maximum input voltage, which can meet the requirements of large voltage measurement; at 1X setting, it is suitable for lower voltage measurement.

    - Capacitance and bandwidth: The typical input capacitance is 17.0pF, with different bandwidths at different attenuation settings to meet the requirements of measurement at different frequencies.

    - Other features: The 1.5m probe length allows for convenient operation, and the probe complies with multiple safety standards to guarantee operation safety.


2. Application Scenarios

    - It is suitable for relatively low-frequency measurement fields, such as low-frequency computer and telecommunication measurement, low-frequency amplifiers, etc. The 1X setting is suitable for accurate measurement at lower frequencies, while the 10X setting can be used for low-frequency measurement at relatively higher frequencies.

3. Compatibility

    - P2220 is compatible with multiple Tektronix oscilloscope series and provides floating measurement for specific series; P2221 is compatible with MSO2000 and DPO2000 series oscilloscopes.


4. Ordering Information

    - It is equipped with abundant standard accessories to meet basic measurement requirements.
