Abstract

This paper presents a new 2 V programmable Josephson voltage standard circuit with dual microwave frequency input. This design provides three main features: (1) output voltages with nanovolt resolution, (2) the ability to perform a microwave frequency self-check based on a null voltage measurement, and (3) additional voltage output taps providing simultaneous 10:1 (or 5:1) divided voltage reference for resistive divider calibration.
