Abstract :
High frequency ac voltage capability continues to be widely available in modern instrumentation yet little attention has been paid by NMI´s to establishing traceable calibrations for these measurements. Here we report on the calibration of the absolute voltage gain at 1 kHz in a 50 Ω system, a parameter that is often used as a reference value in wideband measurements.
