The TIVP series is the second-generation IsoVu optically isolated voltage probe. Power and the measured signal both travel over optical fiber, so the probe head is galvanically isolated from the oscilloscope and can float at the common-mode voltage of the device under test.

With the sensor head about one fifth the size of the first-generation IsoVu probes, the TIVP series measures differential signals up to ±2500 V in the presence of common-mode voltages up to ±60 kV, with 160 dB of common-mode rejection at DC. Bandwidths of 200 MHz, 500 MHz and 1 GHz are available with a 2 m or 10 m fiber cable.

Each probe includes the TIVPMX10X MMCX tip (±50 V). Higher ranges, up to ±2500 V, use the optional TIVPMX50X, TIVPSQ100X or TIVPWS500X tips. The probes connect through TekVPI and work only with 4, 5 and 6 Series MSO oscilloscopes.
