Abstract
Disclosed is a novel electrical probe that stores probe-specific information. A probe implemented in accordance with the invention includes a processor, memory, and a communications interface. Probe-specific information such as a probe identifier and/or calibration parameters that affect the true value of a measurement are stored in the probe memory. The probe-specific information may be retrieved by the processor from the probe memory via the communications interface.
