Agilent Technologies 1141A Differential Probe and

1142A Probe Control and Power Module

This manual contains information for use and service of the differential

probe system, the 1141A Differential Probe and 1142A Probe Control

and Power Module. In this document, the two models will be treated as

a system.

Each of the two instrument models that make up the differential probe

system has a serial number sticker. The sticker for the 1141A

Differential Probe is inside the probe, in the bottom cover. (See

chapter 3 for disassembly procedure.)

The 1141A/1142A probe system allows measurement of small

differential signals in the presence of much larger common-mode

signals. It has the following major features:

• 200 MHz bandwidth

• Variable offset

• dc reject

• ac coupling

• Remote operating capability

The variable offset capability can be used to measure small ac signals in

the presence of much larger dc levels. Remote operation of key

features allows the use of the probe system in automatic test situations.

The probe can be used with an oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer, or any

instrument where differential probing is required and a compatible

50 Ωinput is available.

Operating the Probe

To inspect the probe

Inspect the shipping container for damage. If the shipping container or cushioning

material is damaged, it should be kept until the contents of the shipment have been

checked for completeness and the instrument had been checked mechanically and

electrically. Accessories supplied with the instrument are listed in see “Accessories

Supplied” on page 6 of this manual.

If the contents are incomplete, if there is mechanical damage or defect, or if the

instrument does not pass calibration tests, notify the nearest Agilent Technologies office.

If the shipping container is damaged, or the cushioning materials show sign of stress,

notify the carrier as well as the nearest Agilent Technologies office. Keep the shipping

materials for the carrier’s inspection. The office will arrange for repair or replacement

at Agilent Technologies’ option without waiting for a claim settlement.

Using the probe with other instruments

The 1141A/1142A probe system can be used with other instruments as well as

oscilloscopes. You can use it with a spectrum analyzer or frequency counter, or any

instrument with an input that can be terminated with 50 Ω.

If you are going to use the probe system with an instrument other than an oscilloscope,

you may need to set up the probe with an oscilloscope first. This will allow you to select

coupling and reject modes, and set offset, so the output of the probe is compatible with

signal requirements of the other instrument.

Recommended Test Equipment

The following table is a list of the test equipment required to test calibration, make

adjustments, and troubleshoot this instrument. The table indicates the critical

specifications of the test equipment and for which procedure the equipment is necessary.

Equipment other than the recommended model may be used if it satisfies the critical

specifications listed in the table.
