Tektronix current probes
« on: June 05, 2018, 08:15:26 am »
The relatively old current probe Tektronix P6042.
This current probe allows currents from 1 mA/div to 1A/div (DC to 50 MHz) to be measured without disconnecting the circuit:


The Tektronix current probe P6303, up to a maximum of 100 A.
The maximum frequency, depending on current level, is 15 MHz:


with the control module AM503B:


The Tektronix current clamp CT5 for even higher currents up to 1000 A, but only AC, maximum frequency, depending on current level, is 20 MHz:

Picture follows.

Those images bring fond memories.

One had to make sure to terminate the scope into 50 ohms. But the display would flash if you had not done so, if I remember correctly.
