The Current Probe measures DC and low-frequency AC currents up to 600 mA. Use Current Probes in combination with Differential Voltage Probes to investigate Ohm’s Law and explore series and parallel circuits. The 0.1 Ω shunt resistor minimizes changes to your circuit. If currents will exceed 1 A, use the High Current Sensor.

Maximum voltage on any input: ±10 V
Input Impedance (between inputs): 0.1 Ω
Input Impedance (to ground): 10 MΩ
Typical Resolution: 0.31 mA
Linearity: 0.01%
Supply voltage: 5 VDC
Current in amperes:
Slope: –0.25 A/V
Intercept: 0.625 A
