Tektronix TCP404XL PROBEThe Tektronix TCP404XL Cur 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 Tektronix TCP404XL probe makes cur measurements and calculations simple and easy.Features and Specifications of the TCP404XL Cur Probe include:
Features:
- AC/DC measurement capabilities
- Automatic Scaling and Units
- Requires a TDS TEKPROBE Oscilloscope or a TekConnect oscilliscope with TCA-BNC
- Oscilloscope on-screen readout of magnitude and amps
- Reduces measurement errors with no more hand calculations
- AC/DC input coupling
- Low insertion impedance reduces DUT loading
- Split-core design allows easy circuit connection
- Status Indicators provide visual operating status and notification of potential error conditions including:
- Degauss, Probe open, Overload, Not terminated into 50 Ω, Noncompatible probe type
- Lower DC drift and noise allows improved low-level cur measurements
- Complies with IEC standards
