Micsig Current Probe CP2100A/B Tests and Comparing

<< < (41/42) > >>

ceut:
I have made a little battery module for it, with a very lowcost powerbank module MH-CD42 and a switch+capacitor at the output: it works great  :-+

Also, some last tests I have made with my Keysight DMM (U1233A)

As the Keysight DMM have many hidden settings, I have activated the "Scale" mode with x10 attenuator=>so it shows the good reading with the Micsig on the input  8)
(The bargraph shows the real input voltage, and the "Scale" mode convert it on the main display, with the scale we choose in the settings)
No need to think at all ;D

All with my RD600P PSU short cutted, and "0" done before the first mesurement.
I have to say that this Micsig is really super accurate  :)

Can anybody help translate MicSig's specified Accuracy, identical language for CP2100A & B.  It's entitled "DC accuracy" but then uses "Apk" which I assume means "Amperes Peak", which wouldn't be DC.

DC accuracy (typical)     
3%±50mA (10A)                          {I'm guessing this line is DC, on 10A range, but no equivalent for 100A range}

4%±50mA(100A,500mA~40Apk)  {maybe AC accuracy if Amps peak is <40Amps, up to bandwidth limit  .8 or 2Mhz}

15%(100A,40Apk~100Apk)     {maybe AC accuracy if Amps peak is >40Amps, up to BW  .8 or 2Mhz.  saturation of steel core??  so reads lower than reality}

Your post is a year old, but I thought I'd reply.

The way I read it has nothing to do with AC current, but DC with possible transients.

DC accuracy (typical)     
3%±50mA (10A)                           {DC accuracy on 10A range}

4%±50mA(100A,500mA~40Apk)  {DC accuracy on 100A range, from 500mA to 40A}

15%(100A,40Apk~100Apk)          {DC accuracy on 100A range, from 40A to 100A}

Martin72:
Here is my Bode plot from four years ago.


What does your setup look like?
The probe need to “see” some current, so I wound 10 turns around their core
Then I had set the channel for the generator to 50 ohms, as a kind of load.

Martin72:
Ah, I see that you only display the plot from 30khz and with 0.5dB scaling, so it looks a bit wild.
Use the scaling I used and the plots should be almost identical (except for the phases).
