CWT Ultra-Miniature High Frequency Current Probe
Wideband current probe for ac current sensing up to 30MHzThe Powertek CWT Ultra Mini current probe introduced a novel Rogowski Coil current sensor thin enough (typical cross section 1.7mm) to fit between the legs of a T0220 semiconductor
The CWT ULTRA Miniature current probes utilize a Rogowski Coil current sensor thin enough (typical cross section 1.7mm) to fit between the legs of a T0220 semiconductor switching device. Measuring currents up to 30MHz, the CWT ULTRA miniature is ideal for measuring steady state current, switching transients or pulsed currents between 300mA and 12000Apk in power electronic equipment. The CWT ULTRA miniature probe is a clip around flexible coil current probe, based on the Rogowski principle to achieve high bandwidth measurement and faithful conversion of current to voltage, intended for use with oscilloscopes, transient recorders, data loggers, power meters and power analyzers. All models are supplied with an 80mm length clip-around coil, ensuring easy current monitoring even where access is limited.
