Tektronix AM5030
AM5030 Current Probe Amplifier
Description
The Tektronix AM5030 is a Current Probe Amplifier.
The AM5030, Current Probe Amplifier, uses the IEEE-488.1 bus standard. When you are using a simple command set, you can configure and confirm the settings of the amplifier or you can read the instrument's serial number. You can determine if the current probe is open or closed, you can use bus commands to initiate a self-test or force a probe Degauss and DC balance operation. The AM5030 bus address is set through the front panel and the address is retained even when power is removed.
Key Points
GPIB Programmable Current Probe Amplifier
Plugs into TM5000 Power Modules
Operated with External Controller or Manually from Front Panel
Automated techniques to make wide bandwidth AC/DC current measurements.
While the non-programmable AM503B will operate in either a TM500 or TM5000 power module mainframe, the AM5030 works only in a TM5000 mainframe.
The AM5030 uses A6312, A6302, A6303 and the XL Series of current probes and connects to any scope or analyzer via a BNC cable.
