Safety Information 24

The N2797A single-ended active probe is designed to be used in extreme temperatures

environments. With a 2 meter cable and ability to operate in temperatures from –40°C to

+85°C, the N2797A probe is ideal for environmental labs. The probe’s bandwidth is 1.5 GHz.

The N2797A integrates many of the characteristics needed for today’s general-purpose,

high-speed probing, especially in digital system design, component

design/characterization, and educational research applications. Its 1 MΩinput resistance

and extremely low input capacitance (1 pF) provide ultra low loading of the device under

test. This, accompanied with superior signal fidelity, makes this probe useful for most of

today’s digital logic voltages. With a wide ±8V dynamic range and ±12V offset range, this

probe can be used in a wide variety of applications.

For high signal integrity probing, the N2797A 1.5 GHz active probe is a perfect

complements to Keysight’s 500 MHz – 600 MHz and 1 GHz bandwidth scopes.

The probe is powered directly by the InfiniiVision and Infiniium AutoProbe interface,

eliminating the need for an additional power supply. The probe also come with a number of

accessories that allow for easy connections to the circuit under test. Refer to “Supplied

Accessories" on page 8.

WARNING

Handle the probe with care to avoid injury, especially when it is fitted with the sharp spring or rigid tip.

1Using the Probe

CAUTION

This probe is an ESD sensitive devices, particularly at the probe tips. Follow standard ESD precautions

when handling. Remove tip accessories when storing the probe.

CAUTION

Before using the probe, refer to “Safety Information" on page 24.

CAUTION

Handle the probe cable carefully to avoid damaging it through excessive bending or pulling. Avoid any

mechanical shocks to the probe in order to guarantee accurate performance and protection.

Probe Features

Oscilloscope Compatibility

The N2797A probe is compatible with the Keysight oscilloscopes shown in Table 1. Up to

four probes can be connected to the oscilloscope. The table also lists the minimum required

firmware version for the oscilloscope.

Is Your Oscilloscope Software Up-to-Date? Keysight periodically releases software updates

to support your probe, fix known defects, and incorporate product enhancements. To

download the latest firmware, go to www.keysight.com and search for your oscilloscope’s

topic. Click on the “Drivers, Firmware & Software” tab.

NOTE

The N2797A probe is designed for oscilloscopes with 1 MWAutoProbe-interface channel

inputs.

1Using the Probe

Probe Headlight

The probe is equipped with a white LED headlights to illuminate the area around the probe

tip. This headlight has a fixed intensity and is turned on and off by pressing the button that

is located on the probe’s body.

Figure 1 Headlights and Button

Channel-Identification Rings

When multiple probes are connected to the oscilloscope, the channel identification rings

(yellow, green, blue, and purple) allow you to quickly determine which channel input is

associated with each probe. On the probe, place one colored ring near the probe’s channel

connector and place an identical color ring near the probe head.

Supplied Accessories

The probe comes with the accessories shown in Figure 2.

CAUTION

All of the supplied accessories can be used at the probe’s specified extreme temperature range of –40°C

to +85°C (–40°F to +185°F) except the flex nose clip and pico hook tips. These adapters have a slightly

reduced temperature range of –20°C to +80°C (–4°F to +176°F).

Available Accessories

Table 3 shows the replacement accessories available in the N2798A replacement accessory

kit. The table lists the ambient operating temperatures for each accessory. Those

accessories that have the same temperature range as the probe are marked

“extreme temp”.

Table 4 shows additional accessories that work with the probe, but are not provided with

the probe. Notice that most of these accessories can not be used at extreme temperature

range of the probe.
