2. Highlight the desired mode and press ENTER.
NORMAL: This option is for normal current measuring,
where the meter is placed in series with the current path and
the voltage across an internal shunt resistor is measured. The
Specifications are derated by 50 ppm for currents over 0.5 A
because of the self-heating effects on the shunt resistor.
IN-CIRCUIT: In-circuit current is a calculation based on a
4-wire resistance measurement and a voltage measurement.
It is similar to an offset-compensated ohms reading.
A measurement overflow occurs for any of the following
conditions:
• The measured voltage exceeds |±200 mV|.
• The trace resistance is less than 1m or greater than
10.
• The in-circuit current is greater than 12 A.
The current in a low resistance conductor (e.g., a printed
circuit trace) can be measured without breaking the current
path. The Model 2001 can do this with a pair of Kelvin test
probes across the conductor. See Figure 3-12. The method
follows:
1. Using one set of the Kelvin probe tips, the instrument
sources a known current (I
SOURCE
) through the conductor
and simultaneously measures the resulting voltage
(V
MEAS1
) with the other set of probe tips:
or
2. The instrument then measures the voltage (V
MEAS2
)
across the conductor without sourcing an additional cur-
rent:
or
3. It then calculates the in-circuit current by combining the
equations and solving for I
IN-CKT
:
Because of accuracy considerations, in-circuit current
readings are limited to traces with a resistance of 1 m to
10 . If either of these limits is exceeded in the resistance
calculation, the in-circuit current cannot be calculated. The
bottom line of the front panel display will show and update
the trace resistance.
