21. 4 9 4 3 Probing Philosophy The previous sections made clear that probes exert a load on the signal to be mea sured and change its characteristic The signal at the test point where the probe makes contact Vin is therefore different from the signal that was present before the probe was connected Vs This effect cannot be avoided and occurs with all real probes independent of type and manufacturer This has resulted in a difference of opinion as to which of the following two signals should be output by the probe 1 The initial signal that is not loaded by the probe Vs and that corresponds to the signal at the test point without the probe being connected 2 The input signal that is additionally loaded with the input impedance of the probe Vin and that is actually present between the probe tips Both approaches are physically correct and have their individual advantages and disadvantages In theory it is even possible to mathematically convert the two measurement results into each other but only by performing a complex transfor mation to and from the frequency domain Probe manufacturers will use one or the other of these two approaches Rohde amp Schwarz has decided in favor of the user friendly approach In our opinion most users want to know the signal present in the DUT before it was altered by the influence caused by the probe After all users want to characterize their own DUTs not the Rohde amp Schwarz probe
