en.Wedoany.com Reported - Tektronix expands its power measurement portfolio with the addition of two new accessories—a broadband shunt and the THDP0400 high-voltage differential probe—designed to meet the growing demands for higher precision and bandwidth in modern power electronics. These new products cover a wide range of measurement scenarios, from precision low-current analysis to high-voltage switching characterization in advanced power conversion systems.

With the widespread adoption of silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductor technologies in power electronics design, switching frequencies, efficiency, and power density continue to increase, presenting new measurement challenges: engineers must accurately characterize system performance at higher voltages, faster switching speeds, and lower current levels while suppressing measurement noise and maintaining signal integrity.

The new broadband shunt is the first shunt-based solution in Tektronix's IsoVu precision current measurement ecosystem, specifically designed for low-current, high-bandwidth applications where traditional clamp-on probes or standard shunts often lack sensitivity or transient response. This series of shunts can accurately capture fast current transients, making it suitable for power integrity analysis and power distribution network characterization in semiconductor, embedded, and AI infrastructure applications. With a bandwidth of up to 250 MHz, it can be directly used with Tektronix IsoVu isolated current probes; integrated communication capabilities, temperature compensation, and built-in fuse protection simplify setup and enhance measurement reliability while protecting test equipment and the device under test. By integrating shunt-based measurements into the Tektronix ecosystem, this solution aims to provide engineers with a more comprehensive and streamlined current analysis platform.

Also launched simultaneously, the THDP0400 high-voltage differential probe belongs to the THDP series, offering 400 MHz bandwidth and a ±2000 V differential input range, suitable for floating high-voltage measurements in power electronics verification and wide bandgap semiconductor development. The probe is powered directly via the TekVPI interface, integrating natively with the company's 4 Series B, 5 Series B, and 6 Series B mixed-signal oscilloscopes without the need for an external power supply, reducing test bench complexity. It excels in applications requiring accurate capture of fast switching transients, such as SiC and GaN device characterization, power converter verification, and double pulse testing.

With the addition of the broadband shunt and THDP0400 probe, Tektronix further expands its measurement solutions to serve the development of next-generation power electronics systems in electric vehicles, industrial equipment, AI data centers, and other high-performance fields. Both products are now available.
