UL, CSA, CE Marking
hen combined with a
W
Tektronix TDS oscilloscope, the TCP202
enables users to make
direct readout DC and AC
current measurements,
resulting in accurate displayed and recorded measurements.
The TCP202 is a generalpurpose probe for displaying and measuring current
in electronic circuits. It’s
ideal for power supply and
motor drive design, and for
device testing.
