Description
Product Overview
The Hantek HT201 20:1 passive attenuator is engineered to provide reliable voltage scaling for high‑frequency measurement devices. Constructed from a durable, flame‑retardant polymer housing, each unit offers a compact footprint of 3 × 1 × 1 inches and weighs just 1.76 oz, making it easy to integrate into portable test rigs. The attenuator features a precise 20:1 ratio, allowing users to safely reduce input signals up to 300 V down to a level compatible with most pico‑oscilloscopes. This capability protects sensitive front‑end circuitry while preserving waveform integrity, ensuring that engineers and technicians can capture accurate data without risking equipment damage. The kit includes two identical attenuators, providing redundancy for dual‑channel setups or spare parts for field service.
Technical specifications highlight a broadband frequency response that extends well beyond the typical operating range of handheld oscilloscopes, delivering flat attenuation across the spectrum. The connectors are gold‑plated BNC types, guaranteeing low‑loss signal transmission and robust mechanical coupling. With a rated power handling of 300 V, the HT201 meets the stringent requirements of automotive diagnostics, power electronics testing, and educational laboratory environments. The product is listed under the Industrial & Scientific category, specifically within Oscilloscope Accessories, reflecting its targeted application for professionals who demand precision and durability.

Usage
In automotive service centers, the HT201 attenuator enables technicians to probe high‑voltage ignition systems, battery management circuits, and electric motor controllers without exposing the oscilloscope to dangerous potentials. By stepping down the voltage, the device allows clear visualization of transient events such as spark timing, voltage spikes, and switching noise, facilitating rapid fault isolation and corrective action. In academic laboratories, instructors can demonstrate high‑voltage phenomena safely, giving students hands‑on experience with real‑world signals while preserving the longevity of costly measurement equipment.
Field engineers working on renewable energy installations—such as solar inverter testing or wind turbine controller validation—benefit from the attenuator’s rugged design and easy deployment. The lightweight form factor means the kit can be carried in a standard tool bag, and the simple plug‑and‑play connection eliminates the need for complex calibration procedures. Additionally, the HT201 is suitable for hobbyist electronics projects that involve motor drives, LED power supplies, or any circuit where voltage levels exceed the oscilloscope’s input range.

FAQ
What is the maximum voltage the HT201 can handle?
The attenuator is rated for a maximum input voltage of 300 V, allowing it to safely step down high‑voltage signals for standard pico‑oscilloscope inputs.
Can I use the HT201 with oscilloscopes other than pico models?
Yes, the HT201 is compatible with any oscilloscope that accepts BNC inputs and operates within the specified voltage range, making it a versatile accessory for a wide range of measurement equipment.
Is the attenuator suitable for continuous operation?
While the HT201 is designed for intermittent testing and diagnostic work, it can operate continuously as long as the input voltage does not exceed the 300 V rating and the device is kept within its specified temperature range.
How does the HT201 protect my oscilloscope?
By providing a fixed 20:1 attenuation, the device reduces high‑voltage signals to a safe level, preventing over‑voltage exposure that could damage the oscilloscope’s front‑end circuitry.
What warranty does the HT201 include?
The attenuator comes with a standard one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects, and our support team is available to assist with any issues that arise during that period.
