Got a new Analog Discovery Studio. I have some trouble to compensate existing BNC probes from Keysight (200 MHz rated, 10MOhm, 15pF). I tried it with my friends Probe Master probes too (250 MHz rated). Somehow we can not compensate the signal the right way. The probes work without any problems with a Keysight scope in 10 x mode.
A simple square wave generated 1kHz signal (from Wavegen as well as from a dedicated signal generator) looks quite horrible in 10x mode - in 1x mode in looks quite perfect. Both BNC scope channels behalf more or less the same - completely undercompensated. Followed some pics/screenshots (last pic shows the best result I got after tuning using the compensation screw on the terminal end). Any suggestions? Am I doing something wrong? Any suggestions? Thanks!
