Running Out of Time: Improvements Required In Current Semiconductor Factory and Equipment Clock Synchronization for Supporting Future Real-Time Data Collection

September 23, 2004

Author(s)

Ya-Shian Li-Baboud, Brad Van Eck, Eric D. Simmon

Increasing wafer sizes, decreasing critical dimensions, and new material introduction all challenge higher initial yield, lower manufacturing costs, and time to market demands. Among the key issues driving the challenges are monitoring and maintaining

Users' Guide to the NIST-High-Voltage Capacitance Ratio Bridge

March 28, 2001

Author(s)

Eric D. Simmon, Gerald FitzPatrick, O. Petersons

This TechNote has been written as a guide to the operation of and applications for the NIST Capacitor Ratio Bridge (CRB). The theory, design, and operating principles of the CRB, sources of measurement error, and principal applications are discussed in

Calibration of Dissipation Factor Standards

April 1, 1999

Author(s)

Eric D. Simmon, Gerald FitzPatrick, O. Petersons

Working standards for dissipation factor (D) standards obtained by connecting a shielded three-terminal capacitor in series with a shielded precision resistor have been developed for calibration purposes. Precision conductance boxes have been built for use

Calibration of Dissipation Factor Standards

July 1, 1998

Author(s)

Eric D. Simmon, Gerald FitzPatrick, O. Petersons

Dissipation factor (D) standards obtained by connecting a shielded three-terminal capacitor in series with a shielded resistor have been developed for calibration purposes. An analysis of these DF Standards, including precautions in their construction and

Evaluation of High-Voltage Impulse Waveforms Using Model-Based Deconvolution

June 1, 1998

Author(s)

Gerald FitzPatrick, Eric D. Simmon, J. Lagnese

Accurate measurement of high voltage (hv) impulse waveforms is of critical importance in the testing of hv apparatus and for fundamental insulation studies. Quantifying the measurement system errors can be performed by following procedures recommended by

NIST Cloud Computing Program Supporting the U.S. Cloud Computing Strategy

Author(s)

Eric D. Simmon

Cloud computing is the next step in the continued evolution of information systems. Cloud computing allows consumers to choose what and how they want services delivered and provides billing based on usage. The resources pooling and rapid provisioning of

Use Case Based Testing Applied to Smart Grid Development

Author(s)

Eric D. Simmon, Arthur Griesser

The US Power delivery system is being updated by grafting an intelligent, decision making network to the existing grid. If designed correctly, this smart grid will ensure that the power grid can meet our needs in the coming century. This paper discusses a
