Rohde & Schwarz ZISO Series - RT-ZISO02 Isolated Probing System Package
Isolated probing system for oscilloscopes
The R&S RT-ZISO isolated probing system sets new standards for electrical measurements with exceptional accuracy, sensitivity and speed. Innovative tools are vital to the development of next-generation power electronics, particularly those using wide bandgap materials such as SiC and GaN.
The RT-ZISO can tackle the challenge of measuring high voltage and fast switching environments. The power-over-fiber-optic architecture galvanically isolates the device under test (DUT) for the highest possible common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) at up to 1 GHz. The complete systems compensate thermal drifts and gain errors for the highest possible and uncompromising signal fidelity.

For fast common mode probing challenges
The R&S RT-ZISO isolated probing system suppresses interference from fast common mode signals with optical isolation for a CMRR of > 90 dB at 1 GHz. This helps with high-side gate measurements on complementary switching circuits, especially wide bandgap devices.
1 GHz > 90 dB
500 MHz > 100 dB
100 MHz > 115 dB
1 MHz > 145 dB


Probe tips matter
The R&S RT-ZISO comes in a variety of probe tips and the MMCX probe tip is the most important one for CMRR performance. Different connector types such as square pins and wide square pins are also supported with different attenuation ratios. The probe tip cables are long and formable for allow easy access to a probe point with minimal mechanical stress.
Hassle-free setup with Rohde & Schwarz oscilloscopes
Using the R&S RT-ZISO with the Rohde & Schwarz probe interface on our oscilloscopes creates a seamless experience. The instrument detects and sets up the probe tip information. Offset and range control can be easily configured on the instrument.
