A high precision & non-destructive type of wide band FCT for the measurements of electron current has been developed. This monitoring system is composed of slow & fast FCTs, NiZnCo ferrite toroidal cores, pick up coils, electromagnetic shields & pulse amplifiers. A wide band FCT (rise time 60 ns & decay 1 ms) required for measurement of Electron beam intensity & turn-to-turn observation & stored current accumulation during 1 us pulse injection into Booster Synchrotron. Single FCT can't measure e beam current & turn-by-turn observation from 60 ns to 1 ms. Therefore, we designed & developed two FCTs housed in a single box. The spacing between them is optimized so that coupling between them will not affect pulse shape. The FCT consists of two NiZn ferrite ring cores separable into two pieces for easy setting around ceramic beam duct. A beam intensity of pulse (100 ns ~1 us) beam is monitored by fast rise Current monitor (~ 60 ns)& turn/stored currents monitored by slow FCT (~ 1 us to 1 ms). A wide band FCT showed fast rise & slow decay, high sensitivity (0.050V/mA), linearity within 1 % & good S/N ratio. This paper focuses on FCT designs, construction & their pulse response
