Abstract
An automated system for the intercomparison of thermal voltage converters at the National Bureau of Standards--Gaithersburg is described. It employes a two-channel comparator with components interfaced using the IEEE-488 bus standard. The design and performance of this system are presented and several advantages and disadvantages of this and other automated comparator systems are discussed.
