30 A AC/DC Current Probe

TCP0030A Datasheet

TCP0030A is a high-performance, easy-to-use AC/DC current probe designed for use and direct connection to oscilloscopes with the TekVPI™ probe interface. This AC/DC current measurement probe provides greater than 120 MHz of bandwidth with selectable 5 A and 30 A measurement ranges. It also provides exceptional low-current measurement capability and accuracy to current levels as low as 1 mA, important for meeting today's challenging current measurement needs.

Key features

  • Easy-to-use and accurate AC/DC current measurements
  • Intelligent communication with TekVPI™ oscilloscopes provides:
    • Units scaling and readout. Automatic, on-screen readout of amps and magnitude. Manual setup is not required. Hand calculation from volts to amps is unnecessary
    • Push button degauss and Autozero functionality
    • Probe status and diagnostic indicator LEDs
    • Remote GPIB/USB probe control
  • Split-core construction allows easy circuit connection
  • High accuracy with typically less than 1% DC gain error
  • Low noise and DC drift
  • 3rd party safety certification

Key performance specifications

  • DC to >120 MHz bandwidth
  • 30 A RMS maximum current capability
  • 50 A peak pulse current capability
  • High accuracy with typically less than 1% DC gain error
  • Accurately measures current levels as low as 1 mA

Applications

  • Power supplies
  • Semiconductor devices
  • Power inverters/converters
  • Electronic ballasts
  • Industrial/consumer electronics
  • Mobile communications
  • Motor drives
  • Transportation systems
