Tektronix, Inc. Probe, Ac/dc Current, 1%, Oscilloscope; Meter Side Connector Tektronix TCP312A

PROBE, AC/DC CURRENT, 1%, OSCILLOSCOPE; Meter Side Connector:BNC Plug; Probe Side Connector:Current Clamp; Current Range Max:30A; Current Range Min:1mA; For Use With:Tektronix Oscilloscopes; Product Range:-; Accuracy %:1% RoHS Compliant: Yes

The TCP312A is a Current Probe from Tektronix. Current Probes are an integral part of any electrical power testing toolbox to ensure accurate measurements, reliability, and safety. Purchase a current probe set with your oscilloscope. Probes can use pulse waveforms to test components without removing them from circuits with in-circuit capabilities. Choose the probe that complements your system. We carry new and used current probes from major industry brands.

Additional Features:

• AC/DC measurement capabilities
• DC - 50 MHz, 50 A DC
• Automatic scaling and units- Oscilloscope on-screen readout of magnitude and amps reduces measurement errors with no more hand calculations
• AC/DC input coupling
• Low insertion impedance reduces device under test loading
• Split-core construction allows easy circuit connection
• Status indicators provide visual operating status and notification of potential error conditions - degauss, probe open, overload, not terminated into 50 Ω, noncompatible probe type
• Low DC drift and noise allows improved low-level current measurements
• Certified for use in U.S., Canada, and Europe. Complies with applicable IEC standards
• Requires a TDS TEKSCOPE oscilloscope or a TekConect oscilloscope with TCA-BNC adapter

Power requirements

• Amplifiers: 90 V to 264 V, 47 to 440 Hz, 50 W; Maximum CAT II (auto switch)
• Probes: TCP312A, TCP305A, TCP303 probes require a TCPA300 Amplifier; TCP404XL probe requires a TCPA400 Amplifier

Applications:

Development and analysis solutions for designers, installers, and service personnel in telecom, data comm, computer, and semiconductor power electronics environments for:

• Power supplies (switching and linear)
• Semiconductor devices (SCRs, IGBTs, MOSFETs, CMOS, BJTs)
• Power inverters/converters
• Electronic ballasts
• Industrial/consumer electronics
• Mobile communications (phone, satellite, relay stations)
• Motor drives
• Transportation systems (electronic vehicles, electric trains, locomotives, avionics)
• Meets today's AC/DC current measurement applications

The Tektronix TCPA300 amplifier, when used with TCP312A, TCP305A, or TCP303 probes, provides a wide range of current measurement capability and spans the gap between low-level milliamp measurements to very high current levels. These three probes provide current measurement capabilities of 30 A, 50 A, and 150 A DC continuous. For even higher current levels, the TCPA400 amplifier with the TCP404XL current probe measures 500 A DC continuous and 750 A DC continuous, derated with duty cycle.

The split-core probes incorporate both transformer and Hall effect technology to provide broad bandwidth measurement capabilities from DC up to 100 MHz at current levels as low as 1 milliamp to thousands of amps (when used with CT4 current transformer).

When connected to Tektronix TDS Oscilloscopes with TEKPROBE Level II or TekConnect (w/TCA-BNC) interfaces, current measurements and calculations are simple and easy. Additional measurement power is available with add on software such as the TDSPWR2 power measurements package.

Higher-frequency performance is available with the TCP312A w/TCPA300 providing ≥100 MHz bandwidth and a maximum current of 30 A DC.

Measurement errors and manual calculations are now a thing of the past

With this new series of current measurement tools, automatic control and on-screen scaling and units is provided for users of Tektronix TDS3000, TDS500, TDS600, TDS700, TDS5000, TDS6000, and TDS7000B series oscilloscope systems (the DPO3000, MDO/MSO/DPO4000, MSO/DPO5000, and DPO7000 series oscilloscopes, the TPA-BNC adapter is required).

The TCP300/TCP400 current measurement systems seamlessly integrate with your TDS series oscilloscope.

Even non-TEKPROBE systems can use the TCPA300/400 series to make proper current measurements by simply multiplying the measured output voltage on the oscilloscope by the TCPA300/400 series range setting.
