Abstract :
Waveform measurements have matured to the point where a proliferation of digital waveform recording equipment has led to the organization of a Waveform Measurement and Analysis Committee. The first task is the development of a standard for waveform recorder evaluation and measurement. The Committee has representatives from industry, user laboratories, and NBS. To support this effort, waveform standards are being developed to meet the requirements of waveform recorder evaluation. These include sinewave testing and standard step waveform testing which show promise of providing compact, economical, and rugged standards which should further accelerate the development and use of the time domain in system evaluation.
