Fits RF AC voltage measurement on a DMM where you need a Fluke 85RF II converting 0.25–30 Vrms (100 kHz–500 MHz) to DC into a 10 MΩ voltmeter with ±0.5 dB class ratio accuracy at 25 MHz above 0.5 V.

Key advantages

  • RF range — 0.25–30 Vrms; 100 kHz–500 MHz class
  • Conversion — 1:1 AC-to-DC into 10 MΩ DC voltmeter
  • Accuracy — ±0.5 dB above 0.5 V at 25 MHz; ±1.0 dB below 0.5 V
  • Output — Dual banana into DMM; ~9 pF input capacitance
  • Form — Passive RF probe powered by host DMM

Typical applications

  • RF signal level checks with a DMM.
  • Bench HF voltage troubleshooting.
  • Service work needing 500 MHz-class probe.

Selection guide

  • Host DMM — 10 MΩ ±10% input
  • Voltage band — 0.25–30 Vrms
  • Frequency — Within 100 kHz–500 MHz
  • Connector — Dual banana fit

Common mistakes

  • Using into wrong input impedance.
  • Exceeding 30 Vrms.
  • Ignoring frequency-response curve vs 25 MHz.
