Abstract
A new DC current reference standard, named the PBC, has been developed for high-current power converter calibration in the LHC project at CERN. This standard provides a near ideal 10 mA DC current with long-term drift of less than 1 ppm/year. The paper describes the requirements and the detailed design of the unit.
