The North Atlantic 5300 Programmable S/R Standard and Simulator is a laboratory-grade instrument for precise simulation and testing of synchro and resolver signals. It functions as a true synchro/resolver standard, enabling calibration and testing of Automatic Test Equipment (ATE), Angle Position Indicators (API), and Synchro-to-Digital (S/D) converters across static and dynamic operating modes. Designed for calibration and metrology laboratories, engineering design, and production test environments in defense and commercial aerospace applications.
