Sensepeek 6013 SQ100 - 100 MHz Handsfree Oscilloscope Probe
One complete handsfree 100 MHz oscilloscope probe that makes instant measurements or long triggering sessions a breeze.
- Passive 10:1 probe
- Spring-loaded test needle for fine pitch measurements
- Multiple ground options
- Colour coded cable holders
- Probe tip protection
- Insulated, can be used handheld
- Improved probe holder for handsfree measurement when used with PCBite PCB holders
- The Sensepeek SQ100 can be used hands free or removed for quick probing around your PCB.
The new Sensepeek SQ series of handsfree probes from Sensepeek have a lower point of gravity making them even more stable compared with the original SP series of handsfree probes. All probes in the SQ series are also insulated and can be used handheld as any traditional probe but their full potential is used when measuring handsfree.
All the loved features of handsfree measurement, exchangeable fine pitch spring tipped test needle, color-coded cable holders and the minimalistic design is maintained to make traditional sized and handheld probes obsolete.
Both length and weight of the SQ probes are perfectly balanced to be used with PCBite PCB holders and base plate which is a must for handsfree function.
Includes:
- 1x SQ100 100 MHz probe with spring tipped test needle
- 1x SQ probe holder for handsfree measurement
- 1x Test hook with detachable cables (5cm & 10cm) for convenient ground connection
- 1x Alligator cable for convenient ground connection
- 1x Standard ground spring, for handheld measurements at rated bandwidth
- 1x Unique ground spring, for total handsfree measurements at rated bandwidth
- 1x Set of colour coded cable holders(4 colours)
- 1x Probe tip protection
- 1x Extra test needle
