The Tektronix current probe is a split-core probe that uses both transformer and Hall Effect technology. When connected to Tektronix oscilloscopes with TEKPROBE level II, TekConnect (w/ TCA-BNC), or TekVPI (w/ TPA-BNC) interfaces, the probe makes current measurements and calculations simple and easy.
Features and Benefits
Bandwidth is 2MHz DC Rise time is less than or equal to175 nanoseconds Automatic scaling and units Oscilloscope on-screen readout of magnitude and amps reduces measurement errors with no more hand calculations AC/DC input coupling 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 and overload not terminated into 50 O, noncompatible probe type Low DC drift and noise allows improved low-level current measurements 3rd party safety certification
Applications
