High-Sensitivity Current
Probes
– Measure AC/DC currents as low as
50 uA
– Ideal for capturing and analyzing low
level current ow in the DUT to
characterize sub-circuits or measure
current consumption of battery-
powered devices or integrated circuits
– Simultaneous high- and low-gain
views of the current waveform for
more precise wide dynamic range
measurement (with N2820A)
As modern battery-powered devices and
integrated circuits become more green
and energy efcient, there is a growing
need to make high-sensitivity,
low-level current measurements to ensure
the current consumption of these devices
is in acceptable limits. The N2820A
high-sensitivity probe is engineered to
make high-dynamic-range, high-
sensitivity measurements to meet today’s
challenging current measurement needs.
The ultra-sensitive N2820A AC/DC current
probe can support measurements from 50
uA to 5 A on Keysight oscilloscopes. The
N2820A interface uses a make-before-
break (MBB) connector, allowing you to
quickly probe multiple locations on your
DUT without having to solder or unsolder
the leads. The N2820A 2-channel current
probe connects to two oscilloscope
channels to provide simultaneous low-and
high-gain views for wider dynamic range
measurement, while the N2821A
1-channel current probe provides one
user-selectable view at a time.
The N2820A 2-channel current probe connects to two oscilloscope channels to provide simultaneous low- and
high-gain views for wider dynamic range measurement
Use an area-under-the-curve
measurement (Charge) on InniiVision
oscilloscopes to easily calculate the
integrated current consumptions over time
in Ah.
The N2820A/21A high-sensitivity current
probes are compatible with InniiVision
3000 X-, 4000 X- and 6000 X-Series
oscilloscopes.
