TCA-1MEG
Tektronix award-winning TDS7000, CSA7000
and TDS6000 Series oscilloscopes allow
engineers to make high-speed measurements
quickly and efficiently. In addition to these
high-speed measurements, many of today’s
designers also face the challenges of measuring
high voltage, current, power or even micro-volt
level signals to gain a more complete under-
standing of their designs.
The TekConnect family of amplifiers, probes
and adapters make it the ideal solution for
such challenges, delivering a variety of acqui-
sition capabilities through the use of existing
compatible TekConnect and TEKPROBE
measurement tools.
TekConnect TCA-1MEG Buffer
Amplifier System Expands the
Functionality of Tektronix
High-performance
Oscilloscopes
The TCA-1MEG high-impedance buffer
amplifier system extends the capabilities of
Tektronix high-performance oscilloscopes,
making them ideal for a variety of general-
purpose measurements. The TCA-1MEG
amplifier system provides a 1 M
Ω
path that
is easily removed and replaced with a wide
array of TekConnect probes, amplifiers
and adapters.
This amplifier system delivers versatility to
Tektronix high-performance oscilloscopes
through the addition of input coupling (selec-
table), bandwidth limit (selectable), and a
1 M
Ω
input that provides access to a wide
array of measurement solutions. These
solutions include general-purpose passive
probes, high voltage probes (passive single-
ended and active differential), micro-volt
differential probes and current probes.
