Default Re: Gate drive/ (r) 'scope measurements

You can buy a probe from Tek which is a bnc (with housing and logo) with a length of 50 Ohm coax and a resistor at the probe tip already made!

Pushing a couple of grand, though, now. But it does have a nice stabby tip and a handy grounding sleeve.

I had some old Sealectro probe ends with SMC connectors right behind them, just a near resistor end to go on a cable. Someone nicked two of the set of three, and the other one got dropped on its tip, breaking the glass bead. Moral, don't let other people use your personal gear...
