The RF voltage measurement capability of an equivalenttime sampling system has been investigated over the frequency range of 1-100 MHx. The system is easily calibrated from step response measurements, independent of thermal transfer standards. Comparison measurements made with NBS-calibrated thermal converters show agreement generally within the stated uncertainties presently provided by NBS for such calibrations. The system offers several advantages over conventional thermal transfer techniques: acldc transfers are not required, loading and transmission line problems are reduced, and direct measurement of voltages from 2 V to as low as 10 mV are possible. In addition, other waveform characteristics are readily obtained, e.g., average and peak values, harmonic distortion, etc.
