TCP0150
is a high performance and easy-to-use 150 A AC/DC current probe designed
for use and direct connection (without the need of an additional power
supply) to the TekVPI™ probe interface used on Tektronix DPO4000,
MSO4000, and DPO7000 Series oscilloscopes. This AC/DC current measurement
probe provides 20 MHz of frequency bandwidth with selectable range
control for 25 A and 150 A measurement ranges. It also provides low-current
measurement capability and accuracy to current levels as low as 5 mA
per division – important for achieving broad dynamic current range
of high-level and low-level measurement signals.
