Tektronix Oscilloscope Probes, TCP312A Series AC/DC Current Probe
The Tektronix TCP312A current oscilloscope probe offers current measurement capabilities of 30A DC continuous. The amplifier, when used with provides a wide range of current measurement capability and spans the gap between low-level milliamp measurements to very high current levels. This oscilloscope onscreen readout of magnitude and amps reduces measurement errors with no more hand calculations. Note: Requires TCPA300 amplifier available separately (RS 764-4391)
Features and Benefits
Bandwidth is DC to 100MHz Lowest measurable current is 1mA AC/DC input coupling Insertion impedance is 0.7ohm at 100MHz Rise time ≤3.5 ns Typically less than 1% DC gain error Bare insulated maximum wire voltage is 150V CAT II and 300V CAT II Low insertion impedance reduces device under test loading Split-core construction allows easy circuit connection Status indicators provide visual operating status and notification of potential error conditions - degauss, probe open, overload, not terminated into 50ohm Low DC drift and noise allows improved low-level current measurements Dimensions (LxWxH): 200x60x32 mm
Applications
Current probes are used to help determine how much current a circuit is using and they measure this by clamping around a current carrying conductor. They can be found in: Development and analysis solutions for designers Installers and service personnel in telecom data communication Computers Semiconductor power electronics environments
