This white paper emphasizes the importance of avoiding common mistakes when using probes for measurements. It acknowledges that in an ideal scenario, probes would have no impact on the circuit being measured, but in reality, they introduce loading to the circuit. The resistive, capacitive, and inductive components of the probe can alter the circuit's response. Since every circuit has unique electrical characteristics, it is crucial to consider the probe's characteristics and choose one that minimizes the impact on the measurement. This includes considering the connection to the oscilloscope input, the cable used, and any additional accessories or wiring involved. The white paper aims to educate readers about the potential pitfalls in their testing practices and provides guidance on how to improve measurements through better probing techniques.
