PCI Standard Programmable Resistor Cards
Pickering's PCI Standard Programmable Resistor Cards include fully programmable resistor and potentiometer cards for applications such as sensor emulation that require fine adjustment with a resolution down to 0.25 Ohm. All of our Programmable Resistor Cards can easily be formed to make Programmable Potentiometers by connecting two channels in series, using the unconnected terminals as the A and B connections and the link between the two channels as the wiper connection.

High Frequency Standard Capacitor
GenRad 1403 Series
The GenRad 1403 Standard Air Capacitors are stable, three-terminal standards in decimal values from 0.001 pF to 1000 pF. For measurement at 100 pF and below, a three terminal connection increases the accuracy by eliminating the uncertainty in the measurement introduced by the capacitances between the capacitor terminals and ground.
