Re: Testing Scope Probes
Jmr,
The 3.5Ghz known-good probe is a *passive* one! And the other chap who said it was a 400Mhz scope - it's the 350Mhz model in fact.

Bear in mind that tests are being done up to 500MHz and your T piece method relies on the voltage at both probe inputs being the same. This is in some doubt if you use a completely

You can try the T piece method as long as you accept that it won't actually demonstrate the expected bandwidth of the probe. It will show differences between the probes.
You will have to be wary of
