Overview

Product Highlights

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
