Passive probes are the standard probe provided with most oscilloscopes.
Typical passive probes provide a ÷10 attenuation and feature a high
input resistance of 10 MΩ. This high input resistance means that
passive probes are the ideal tool for low frequency signals since circuit
loading at these frequencies is minimized. Passive probes are designed
to handle voltages of at least 400 V, some as high as 600 V. Teledyne
LeCroy passive probes feature an attenuation sense pin which tells the
oscilloscope to scale the waveforms automatically requiring no user input.
