چکیده
Low-frequency errors of thin-film multijunction thermal voltage converters are estimated using a simple model based on easily measured parameters. The model predictions are verified by measuring the converter’s frequency characteristic using a digitally synthesized source.

متن کاملAutomatic determination of the Thin-Film Multijunction Thermal Voltage Converter parameters
The Thin Film Multijunction Thermal Converter (TFMJTC) has become the most sensitive and precise transfer standard for the accurate measurement of the ac quantities. Therefore, its parameters are determined at the National Institute of Standards (NIS), Egypt, to obtain its best operating conditions. These parameters are short-term stability, settling time, dc response time, n-factor, input/outp...
متن کاملDevelopment of a High-precision Ac-dc Transfer Standard Using the Fast-reversed Dc Method
The ac-dc transfer standard is one of the basic electrical standards, by which the ac voltage and ac current are deduced from their dc counterparts in the frequency range between 10 Hz and 1 MHz [1,2]. The dc voltage standards are established using a Josephson voltage standard with uncertainty better than 10-7 [3-5]. The ac voltage standard in the frequency range 10 Hz to 1 MHz are derived from...
متن کاملThe relationship between microsystem technology and metrology
Microsystem technology (MST) has enabled silicon sensors to evolve from simple transduction elements to microsystems (micro-instruments) that include readout circuits, self-test, and auto-zeroing facilities. This paper discusses the impact of MST in the instrumentation and measurement (I&M) field. In metrology, in particular, the development of electrical reference standards by using microtechn...
متن کاملAdvanced Sensors for Accurate, Broadband AC Voltage Metrology
We report on advances in ac voltage metrology made possible by a new generation of Multijunction Thermal Converters (MJTCs). Although intended for use primarily in highfrequency (1 MHz to 100 MHz) metrology, their exceptional low-frequency qualities, combined with a large dynamic range, makes these MJTCs excellent devices for the frequency range 10 Hz to 100 MHz at voltages from 1 V to 20 V, de...
