> Overview   > Specifications   > Circuit   > Calibration Modes
supraVOLTcontrol is a complete 3 - channel microprocessor controlled 10V Josephson voltage standard (JVS) system devoloped in the Institute for Physical High Technology Jena (IPHT). It facilitates a variety of dc voltage calibrations and measuring functions:
- Calibration of secondary voltage standards
- Calibration of linearity and accuracy of voltmeters (dc)
in the voltage range of 0 to +/-10 V.
