Measurement of Frequency Dependences of Low-Value Four-Terminal Resistance Standards

Jaroslav Bohacek
  • Abstract:
    A 10 Ω quadrifilar resistor with calculable frequency dependence served as a reference in measurement of frequency dependences of resistance standards ranging from 1 Ω to 0.01 Ω in a frequency range up to 10 kHz. In this measurement, a step-down method based on successive 10:1 comparisons of the standards by means of a transformer bridge was used. Ratio arms of this bridge being formed by an eight-decade, two-stage inductive voltage divider, a small variable voltage injected into one connecting lead of the ratio winding of the divider serves for quadrature balancing.
