    WARNING. To avoid electric shock, do not exceed the bare wire voltage ratings (30 VAC or 42 Vpk). Depending on which instrument the CT-1 or CT-2 is connected to, the exposed current transformer case metal may be floating (elevated above earth potential). Whenever possible, connect the mounting stud to earth ground.
  • Page 15: Description

    For each mA of input current the signal terminal develops 5 mV (CT-1) or 1 mV (CT-2) when properly terminated into 50 Ω. The sensitivity of the CT-1 is 5 mV/mA (200 μA/mV) and the CT-2 is 1 mV/mA (1 mA/mV) when properly terminated into 50 Ω.
  • Page 16 (preferred connection). Figure 3: CT-2 frequency response vs. DC current The CT-1 and CT-2 consist of a current transformer and a flexible probe cable that attaches between the transformer and the oscilloscope. In addition, the CT-1 and CT-2 have an internal termination resistor that reduces reflections that allows the transformer to be disconnected from the probe cable and left in the circuit.

    (see recommended accessories in the Replaceable Parts List). The following figure shows the output of the CT-1 compared with the input pulse from a 250 ps fast-rise pulse generator and the output of the CT-2 as seen by a 100 MHz oscilloscope system.
  • Page 18: Injecting Current Signals

    Operation If the CT-1 or CT-2 is connected so that the positive (+) label side faces the signal source, the input current and output voltage are in phase. This is the preferred connection. For pulses with a risetime slower than 1 ns, the CT-1 or CT-2 may be connected in either polarity.
  • Page 19: Low Frequency Response

    To generate larger secondary signals, pass the wire through the transformer core multiple times. To calculate how much voltage to apply to the CT-1 probe to inject a desired amount of current, multiply the desired current to be injected by 5. For the CT-2 the voltage to apply is equivalent to the desired current.

    Tektronix for replacement. CAUTION. Dropping the CT-1 or CT-2 transformer may break the probe. Do not pull or stretch the P6041 cable or place objects on the cable. This may damage the probe cable.
