Make sure the Calibrator Mainframe impedance is set to 50 Ω (The blue softkey under
Output Z toggles the impedance between 50 Ω and 1 MΩ).
1. Set the HP 3458A to DCV, Auto Range, NPLC = 10, FIXEDZ = on.
2. Program the Calibrator Mainframe to output the voltage listed in Table 6-50. Press
O on the Calibrator Mainframe to activate the output.
3. Allow the HP 3458A reading to stabilize, then record the HP 3458A reading for each
voltage in Table 6-50.
Multiply the readings by (0.5 * (50 + Rload) / Rload), where Rload = the actual
feedthrough termination resistance, to correct for the resistance error. Compare result to
the tolerance (1-year spec.) column.
