TCP303 and TCP404XL Performance Verification
5-38
TCPA300/400 Amplifiers and TCP300/400 Series Current Probes Instruction Manual
a. If you are testing a TCP303, clamp the current probe around the HF
current loop. Verify that the arrow-shaped indicator on the probe points
away from the pulse generator.
b. If you are testing a TCP404XL, clamp the current probe around the
built--in current loop on the pulse generator. Verify that the arrow-shaped
indicator on the probe points away from the output terminal on the pulse
generator.
4. Adjust the vertical gain and set the vertical position of the oscilloscope so
that the trace is at the bottom of the screen, and 5 to 8 divisions are
displayed. Press LEVEL to trigger the oscilloscope. (You may have to adjust
the pulse generator output to achieve this.)
5. Using the measurement capability of the oscilloscope, measure the rise time
of the displayed pulse from 10% to 90% amplitude.
6. Check that the rise time is less than the warranted specification listed in the
test record.
7. Record the results on the test record.
8. Disconnect the probe from the pulse generator.
