  • Abstract
    The NBS Reference Flat Pulse Generator (RFPG) is used to transfer dc voltage and resistance standards to the nanosecond domain. It provides a step amplitude of 1.000 V (open circuit) from a source impedance of 50.0¿. The transition duration is 600 ps, and all perturbations are damped out to less than ±10 mV within 5 ns. It can also be used as a time interval transfer standard.
