Many Tektronix instruments provide power for active probes.
There have been several distinct versions of probe power.
There have been several distinct versions:


* The [[513]] provides +225 V, +6.3 V, and a variable supply producing +15 V to +150 V.
* The [[513]] provides +225 V, +6.3 V, and a variable supply producing +15 V to +150 V.

* The [[3S1]] provides +100 V and -12.2 V.
* The [[3S1]] provides +100 V and -12.2 V.
* The [[4S1]] provides +100 V, -12.6 V, and -25.2 V.
* The [[4S1]] provides +100 V, -12.6 V, and -25.2 V.
* [[7000-series scopes]] (not all models) and the [[1101]] probe supply provide +15 V, +5 V, and -15 V through a [[LEMO S-series connector]].
* [[7000-series scopes]] (not all models), [[475]], [[485]] and the [[1101]] probe supply provide +15 V, +5 V, and -15 V through a [[LEMO S-series connector]].
* [[Tekprobe BNC connector|TekProbe]] is a proprietary probe-scope interface that combines signal and probe power and provides the scope with information about the what type of probe is connected.   
* [[Tekprobe BNC connector|TekProbe BNC]], [[Tekprobe SMA connector|TekProbe SMA]] and [[TekConnect interface|TekConnect]] are proprietary probe-scope interfaces that combine signal and probe power as well as control (e.g. offset voltage), and provide the scope with information about the type of probe is connected.
