Operating Basics  
The P6131 probe is a subminiature, 10X, passive probe designed specifically for  
use with Tektronix 2400 Series oscilloscopes. It is fully compatible with the  
Tektronix family of subminiature probe accessories. The P6131 is available  
with 1.3 and 2 meter cable.  
WARNING. To avoid electric shock when using the probe, do not touch the  
metallic portions of the probe head while connected to a voltage source.  
Lead Inductance  
Inductance introduced by long leads can form resonant circuits that ring and  
distort the true waveform if driven by signals containing significant frequency  
components at or above resonance. To maintain optimum waveform fidelity,  
keep the ground lead and signal input connection as short as possible.  
Probe Compensation  
Due to variations in oscilloscope input characteristics, probe low-frequency  
compensation should be checked and or adjusted if you move the probe from one  
oscilloscope input to another. Connect the probe tip to a 1 kHz square wave  
signal (such as the oscilloscope calibrator output) and use a nonconductive  
low-reactance alignment tool to adjust the compensation capacitor.  
High-frequency compensation seldom requires adjustment. However, if the probe  
has excessive high-frequency aberrations or insufficient bandwidth, you can  
adjust the high-frequency compensation through holes in the compensation box  
inner metal shield.  
For complete low-frequency and high-frequency compensation adjustment  
procedures, see page 10.

Operating Basics  
Grounding the Probe  
Connect the probe to the instrument and connect the ground lead to ground  
before making any measurement. Ensure that no part of the ground lead contacts  
voltage in the circuit under test. Except for the probe tip and BNC center  
conductor, all accessible metal (including the ground clip) is connected to the  
BNC shell.  
WARNING. To avoid electric shock when using the probe, keep your fingers  
behind the finger guard on the probe body. See Figure 1 below.

To confirm the full bandwidth specification of the P6131 probe, use the following equipment: a Tektronix 2465 oscillo-  
scope or 7904 oscilloscope with 7B92A time base and 7A42 vertical amplifier and a leveled sine wave generator capable  
of 300 MHz output. If you use the probe with a Tektronix 2445 oscilloscope, the bandwidth specification is lower; see  
Table 1 on page 3.

6. Remove the coax cable from the test setup. Connect the P6131 probe output  
to the same vertical input on the oscilloscope.  
7. Connect the probe tip through the probe-tip-to-BNC adapter to the standard  
amplitude output of the calibration generator. (You must remove the light  
gray probe-body shell before inserting the probe tip into the probe-tip-to-  
BNC adapter.)  
8. Set the calibration generator output amplitude to 0.5 V and fine tune the  
amplitude to produce a precise 5-division display on the oscilloscope.  
9. The deflection error indicated by the calibration generator must be within  
0.75% of the error noted in step 5 above (probe attenuation accuracy of ±1%  
minus the generator uncertainty). Example: if the error noted in step 5 is  
+1%, the calibration generator display must now indicate between 0.25%  
and 1.75%.  
NOTE. You can also check the probe attenuation accuracy with an ohmmeter  
having a 10 MW range and ±0.05% or greater accuracy.  
An attenuation accuracy of ±1.0% is assured if the oscilloscope input resistance  
is 1 MW ±0.55% (±0.5% tolerance plus 0.05% reading uncertainty) and the  
probe-tip-to-output series resistance is indicated to be 9 MW ±0.35% (±1.0%  
attenuation accuracy minus ±0.6% input resistance uncertainty minus ±0.05%  
reading uncertainty).  
10. Disconnect the test setup.  
Adjustment Procedure  
This section contains procedures to adjust the P6131 probe low-frequency and  
high-frequency compensations. Always perform the low-frequency compensation

10. Verify that the high-frequency aberrations do not exceed +6% (5.30  
divisions), –6% (4.70 divisions), or 9% (0.45% division) peak to peak, in  
addition to the system aberrations noted in step 5 above.  
11. If the probe aberrations are within tolerance, proceed to step 14 below. If the  
probe aberrations are not within tolerance, continue with step 12 below.  
12. Adjust R2021 for the best overall waveform flat response. See Figure 8 for  
the location of all adjustments.  
13. Adjust R2020, R2010, and C1010 for the best corner response without  
ringing. See Figure 9 for the waveform area effected by each adjustment.  
NOTE. High-frequency compensation adjustments affect probe bandwidth.  
Following the compensation adjustments, verify the probe bandwidth specifica-  
tion using the procedure on page 8. A small overshoot on the leading edge of  
the pulse may be tolerated in order to meet the bandwidth specification. The  
overshoot should not exceed the typical aberrations described in step 10 above.  
14. Reinstall the compensation box cover by performing the procedure described  
in step 7 above in reverse order.  
15. Disconnect the test setup.
