How many calibrators
do you need to meet
ISO 9000?
Application Note


Abstract
Modern quality standards are all about monitor-
ing, controlling and documenting processes.
Technology is providing ever more sophisticated
multifunction tools to do that job at affordable
prices. The prospect of supporting the calibration
of these tools, as well as the more traditional
ones, can be quite daunting.
This application note describes the design
and development of a new class of multi-product
calibrator and related tools for managing a bur-
geoning calibration workload in the ISO 9000
environment.

Introduction
Emerging quality standards--specifically the ISO
9000 series--are changing the nature of electri-
cal calibration. More and more companies that
have never really calibrated are finding it neces-

sary to establish calibration programs to support
their quality systems.
These changes in calibration fall into three
categories:
