1

A DC (TCP404XL) (500 A DC Continuous)

Automatic Scaling and Units*

2

– 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

Lower DC Drift and Noise allows Improved Low-level Current
Measurements

Certified for use in U.S., Canada, and Europe. Complies with applicable
IEC Standards.

Applications

Development and Analysis Solutions for Designers, Installers,
and Service Personnel in Telecomm, 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)

Increased Performance and Simplicity

The TCP300 and TCP400 Series AC/DC current measurement family
is a highly advanced current measurement system for today's current
measurement needs. When connected to Tektronix oscilloscopes with
TEKPROBE Level II, TekConnect (w/ TCA-BNC), or TekVPI (w/ TPA-BNC)
interfaces, current measurements and calculations are simple and easy.
