Sampling diodes: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

There are at least two kinds of '''sampling diodes''' used in classic Tek ~~sampling~~ gear, GaAs junction diodes and Schottky diodes.

There are at least two kinds of '''sampling diodes''' used in the [[Sampling gate|sampling gates]] of classic Tek gear, GaAs junction diodes and Schottky diodes.

It is easy for these diodes to get destroyed by ESD. They are designed to have low capacitance, which means that a small amount of charge can produce a potentially damaging voltage across the diode.
