  • Abstract
    The error sources of AC-DC differences of millivolt thermal standards-micropotentiometers (/spl mu/pot´s)-and the step down calibrations of /spl mu/pot´s from 20 Hz to 1 MHz are analyzed. The new step down method for sub-mV ranges significantly reduces the /spl mu/pot´s uncertainty.
