Tektronix made Oscilloscope probes in a number of standardized mechanical dimensions so that accessories like tips or hooks could be interchanged.
The standards include
- 6-32 probes (#6-32 UNC thread)
- Miniature modular probes (5 mm tip diameter)
- Compact modular probes (3.5 mm tip diameter)
- Subminiature modular probes (2.5 mm tip diameter)
- 4 mm
- SMD
From an electrical perspective, probes can be classified into passive and active probes, and further categorized into these categories.
