Abstract
A voltage standard based on a series array of pulse-biased, nonhystere tic Josephson junctions is proposed. The output voltage can be rapidly and continuously programmed over a wide range by changing the pulse r epetition frequency. Simulations relate the circuit margins to pulse h eight, width, and frequency. Experimental results on a prototype circu it confirm the expected behavior.
