Current Probes Capture Faster Power Electronics Signals

New current probes with significantly increased bandwidth have been introduced, enabling engineers to accurately capture and analyze high-speed switching waveforms in modern power electronics. These probes are specifically designed for measuring fast transients in GaN, SiC, and other wide-bandgap semiconductor devices used in high-efficiency power converters.

Key Features

• Extended bandwidth for capturing fast rise times
• High accuracy and low insertion impedance
• Wide current measurement range
• Compatibility with modern oscilloscopes
• Robust mechanical design for lab and industrial use

As switching frequencies and slew rates continue to rise in GaN and SiC-based designs, traditional current probes often fail to provide accurate measurements. The new probes address this challenge by offering faster response times and better fidelity, allowing engineers to optimize efficiency, reduce EMI, and improve reliability of power conversion systems.

Target Applications

• GaN and SiC power converter development
• High-frequency DC-DC converters
• Electric vehicle powertrains and chargers
• Renewable energy inverters
• Server and data center power supplies

These advanced current probes are becoming essential tools for power electronics engineers working on next-generation high-efficiency and high-density designs.
