TCP305 and TCP
312 DC Gain Adjustment
Use the following procedure to adjust the DC gain of the TCP305 and TCP312
Probes.
Equipment Co
nnections
1. Connect the amplifier OUTPUT to the DMM input using a BNC-to-Dual
Banana connector, 50 Ω BNC cable, and a 50 Ω precision feedthrough
termination. Do not connect the termination at the amplifier output.
2. Connect the current probe to the amplifier PROBE INPUT connector.
3. Connect the 5-turn DC current loop to the current source as shown. (See
page 4, Making DC Current Loops.)
4. Do not clamp the current probe around any conductor, but make sure the
slide is locked.
