A Wideband RC Voltage Divider
One way to build high-speed circuits with relatively large input impedances and capacitances is to use a simple RC voltage divider, as shown in the figure below. This RC divider is commonly found in oscilloscope 10X probes.
Let and , then the output voltage can be expressed as:
