Equipped with an extremely thin, clip-around coil (1.6mm cross-section).
The CWT Ultra-mini (CWTUM) has an extremely thin, clip-around coil of typically 1.6mm cross section. With such a thin coil it is possible to access even the most difficult to reach parts of a power electronic converter with negligible disruption to the circuit under test.
The CWT Ultra-mini is a wide-band AC current probe with BNC output to connect to most types of oscilloscope or data acquisition devices.
Features
- Wide operating temperature -40°C to +125°C.
- (-3dB) bandwidth from a few Hz to 30MHz.
- Loads the circuit under test by only a few pH.
- Coil insulation 1.2kV pk.
- Standard coil length (circumference) of 80mm. Longer coil lengths readily available.
- 1.7mm (max) cross section diameter.
- Peak di/dt capabilities up to 100kA/μs.
- Current ratings from 30A pk to 30kA pk.
Applications
- Switching current waveforms in power electronic circuits: MOSFET or IGBT devices as small as TO-220 or TO-47.
- Measuring power losses in semiconductor bond wires in power devices.
- Monitoring currents in small inductors, capacitors, snubber circuits, etc.
- Measuring small AC currents in the presence of large DC currents (e.g. monitoring capacitor ripple).
- Power converter development and diagnostics.
- Measuring high frequency sinusoidal, pulsed or transient currents in power frequency to rf applications.
