<blockquote><p>
The oscilloscope is an essential tool for anyone working in electronics. Whether you’re working in electronics service, production, testing R&D or in your home workshop, you need an oscilloscope. If you listen to a bunch of technical people chatting about their scopes, they’ll talk about their bandwidth or whether they have colour displays, depth of memory or portability but the probes rarely get mentioned. In fact, most users don’t think about their probes until they hear the sickening crunch underfoot which tells them they shouldn’t have left them dangling off the bench onto the floor. There are many varieties of “specialist” probes: active-FET probes, differential-floating probes, current- sensing probes are just some we could mention.
