The TA489 (AD2801) is a high-bandwidth differential probe. With a fast 800 MHz bandwidth it is ideal for measuring high-speed differential signals.

This differential probe extends the functionality of standard single-ended input oscilloscopes to allow a safe and accurate method of making differential voltage measurements. Applications include making safe measurements in power circuit applications and acquisition of high-speed balanced differential signals found in serial communications buses.

Recently redesigned, the TA489 (AD2801) replaces the TA046 with the same performance specifications, but with improved powering options. This probe now includes an in-line battery module, with a 5 V USB power lead integrated for use with standard off-the-shelf USB chargers.
