How to use Tektronix oscilloscope current probes

　　Tektronix oscilloscope current probes make simple and accurate current measurements based on the tekr0bebnc interface. Immediately connect with TDS. The series of digital oscilloscopes with split-core core structure can be simply connected to the power circuit DC to 50MHz network bandwidth 15A DC 10 maximum value AC 50A peak single pulse current 50*0.00001 (picoamp-second).

　　1. The wires used in capacitance testing should be power lines with a cross-sectional area of ​​more than 05mm2 (AWG20).

　　2. When connecting the capacitor to be measured to the power line, move the capacitor to the tin side of the base material and measure using methods A and B. In addition, reduce the number of power lines as much as possible.

　　Harmonic distortion current detection digital oscilloscope adjustment method

　　1. Adjustment

　　1. The corresponding detection channel probe is set to current, and the selected detection is the coupled DC gear.

　　2. Select 20MHZ for the broadband network.

　　3. Adjust the four precise measurement items to be displayed on the digital oscilloscope screen: the root mean square value, the highest value, the peak value, and the operating frequency.

　　2. The current probe needs to be demagnetized before detecting harmonic distortion current.

　　Tektronix Oscilloscope Current Probe FAQs

　　1. Based on the fault analysis of damaged current probes, it was found that the locations of the probes that are most easily damaged are probably:

　　2. The circuit board connected to the current amplifier;

　　3. The magnetic ring of the current probe is broken;

　　4. Magnetic ring electromagnetic coil of current probe;

　　5. The appearance of the rolling clip of the current probe is damaged;

　　6. Cable short circuit.

　　7. Reasons for damage to the current probe, methods to prevent damage and instructions for use. The above five factors that cause damage can be summarized as follows:

　　8. Damage to the circuit board caused by plugging in the current probe after the current amplifier is powered on.

　　9. Ways to prevent damage: - Remember not to plug or pull out the current probe while the power is on

　　10. The magnetic ring is a fragile material and can easily be damaged if it is dropped or used with excessive force. A damaged/damaged magnetic ring will cause the detection to be inhibited or the current to be no longer measurable.

　　11. Prevent damage and adopt methods: prevent falling to the ground or using excessive force when using

　　12. The magnetic ring electromagnetic coil is relatively thin, and overcurrent will cause damage to the electromagnetic coil.

　　13. Ways to prevent damage: - Prevent overload current during use.

　　14. If the current clamp is not aligned at both ends, cracks will cause the detection to be disabled or the current cannot be measured. Note, be careful during the clamping process.

　　15. Ways to prevent damage: - Align both ends of the current clip when using it. Pay attention and be careful when promoting the clamping process

　　16. The cable is easily damaged if it is pulled or twisted too hard.

　　17. Ways to prevent damage: - Do not pull or twist the cable too hard when using it.
