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.
