Current Probe

AVCP-series current probes are based on a series resistor and differential amplifier which generates an output voltage proportional to the current flowing through the resistor. Large series resistors are used to create a large voltage drop in order to measure extremely low currents in the order of uA and mA. Unlike current probes based on Hall effect sensors, AVCP-series current probes do not need to be demagnetized (degaussed) and can be used more easily over long periods of time.

Features and Benefits

  • Resistor-based design
  • Ideal for low-current measurements
  • Compatible with most commercial oscilloscopes and digitizers
  • Ideal for pulsed measurements
  • No need for demagnetization (degauss)

Key Specifications

  • I range (DC continous) +/- 0.004 A to +/- 0.2 A
  • V range -5 V to 80 V
  • DC Accuracy +/- 3% of reading
  • Bandwidth DC to 2 MHz
  • Lowest Measurable Current 38 uA to 1.4 mA
  • I damage DC 200 mA to 1400 mA
