TC-10
is actively developing four major standards: The
revision of IEEE Std 1057-1994 (Standard for Digitizing Waveform
Recorders); the revision of IEEE Std 1241-2000 (Standard for
Terminology and Test Methods for Analog-to-Digital Converters);
the development of IEEE Std P1658 (Standard
for Terminology and Test Methods for Digital-to-Analog Converter Devices; and,
the development of IEEE Std P1696 (Standard for Terminology and Test
Methods for Electronic Probes). Effort continues to persuade the IEC
to adopt IEEE Std 181-2003 (Standard on Transitions, Pulses, and Related
Waveforms). The committee members reviewed the latest version of the
working drafts of 1057, 1658, and 1241 at our May 2007 meeting
in Tucson, AZ, hosted by Texas Instruments. Preliminary
investigation into methods of characterizing high-frequency probes
and their test fixtures continued at the May meeting to form the
technical foundation for 1696. A tutorial on ADC fundamentals,
selection, test, and calibration was presented at IMtc2007 in Warsaw, Poland on
April 30, 2007. The fall 2007 TC-10
meeting is scheduled for October 15 - 18,
2007 in Boston, MA (sponsored by LTX).
The winter meeting is tentatively scheduled for February 2008 in
Colorado Springs, CO.
