Stable 1 volt programmable voltage standard

Several fully functional programmable voltage standard chips, each having a total of 32 768 Nb–PdAu–Nb Josephson junctions, have been fabricated and tested. The chips are based on a new design that provides fast programmability (1 μs) between voltages and stable voltage operation from −1 to +1 V. A...

Zusammenfassung:Several fully functional programmable voltage standard chips, each having a total of 32 768 Nb–PdAu–Nb Josephson junctions, have been fabricated and tested. The chips are based on a new design that provides fast programmability (1 μs) between voltages and stable voltage operation from −1 to +1 V. A comparison of the new standard with a conventional Josephson voltage standard is in agreement to 0.5±1.1 parts in 109. We demonstrate the utility of this standard by measuring the linearity of a digital voltmeter.
