Calibration Report
A record of shifts or calibration constant changes that have occurred during
calibration.
Calibrator
A device that supplies outputs with a known uncertainty for use in testing the
accuracy of measurement devices or other sources.
Characterization
A calibration process that produces a calibration constant or known error for use
in correcting the output or reading of an instrument or standard.
Common Mode Noise
An undesired signal that exists between a device's terminals and ground.
Common mode noise is at the same potential on both terminals of a device. Also
see “normal mode noise”.
Compliance Voltage
The maximum voltage that a constant-current source can supply.
Confidence Level
A percentage indicating certainty or assurance that an associated condition is
true.
Control Chart
A chart devised to monitor one or more processes in order to detect the
excessive deviation from a desired value of a component or process.
Crest Factor
The ratio of the peak voltage to the RMS voltage of a waveform (with the DC
component removed). Also see RMS.
DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter)
A device or circuit that converts a digital waveform to an analog voltage.
Derived Units
Units in the SI system that are derived from base units. Volts, ohms, and watts
are derived from amperes and other base and derived units.
Distribution Function
The expression of a relationship between the values and the corresponding
frequencies of a variable.
Drift
Gradual change in a value over time.
