Tektronix TCP0020 Current Probe
The Tektronix TCP0020 is a versatile and high-performing current probe, capable of accurately measuring both AC and DC currents from DC up to 50 MHz, with a maximum capacity of 20 A. This model is specifically engineered to directly connect with oscilloscopes using the TekVPI probe interface. The probe supports system bandwidths up to 50 MHz and can precisely measure current levels starting as low as 10 mA, up to a maximum of 20 ARMS. This makes the TCP0020 a reliable choice for a broad array of measurement tasks, offering both high accuracy and broad measurement range.
