Abstract
Prototype of quantum standard based on the Josephson effect for synthesis sine wave with low level harmonics and high accuracy was developed at VNIIM, which opens up new possibilities for metrological support in the field of АС voltage. The standard includes cryogenic probe with Josephson chips, delta-sigma modulator, pulse pattern generator, compensation circuit, spectrum analyzer, video control unit and software. The capability of synthesis sine wave with an output voltage up to 130 mV RMS over a wide frequency range from about 1 kHz to 100 kHz is shown. Higher harmonics are suppressed bellow the noise floor up to 100 dBc.
