The Agilent/Keysight CX1213A is a resistive sensor head that serves as a component module for the CX1104A selectable shunt current sensor. It enables accurate dynamic current measurements up to 5 A across a 20 MHz bandwidth through a calibrated shunt resistor element. The typical insertion resistance is 23 mΩ, minimizing measurement artifacts in precision current sensing applications.
Technical Specifications
