Hello,
Usually, I try to minimize the area between the probe and ground clip by holding the ground clip against the probe and selecting a close ground with the probe to minimize noise pick up.
I think the gist is to have a high impedance probe and a low impedance ground. I've read a bit about using a coax cable on the ground. Would someone describe this method? I'm trying to measure actual noise on my 5V rail, my voltage reference and the input to an ADC. I purchased a coax T to help accommodate this measurement.
Thanks!
