The resulting input impedance versus frequency is indicated in Figure 4-8. The
trace shows three characteristic areas that can be assigned to R
in
, C
in
and R
RF
.
The resulting loading of a step signal at the input of the probe is given in Fig-
ure 4-9.
The connection inductance L
con
has only a minor effect on the signal loading and
is therefore not considered in the following.
