The IEEE Technical Committee 10 (TC-10), the Waveform Generation, Measurement, and Analysis Committee of the IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement (I&M) Society, seeks to support the advancement of industries and other entities that research, develop, manufacture, and use technologies and instruments that generate or acquire signals. These signals are used in most if not all interfaces between humans and technology, such as, but not limited to, communication, computing, transportation, medicine, entertainment, manufacturing, and agriculture. In fact, it is very difficult to identify a human activity, other than the primitive, that is not in some way touched by electronics. So, in the broadest interpretation of the goal of the TC-10, it could be said that the TC-10 impacts everyone. Because the TC-10 is a developer of documentary standards, the TC-10's goal is achieved by fulfilling, as best as possible, the global need for standardized terms, test methods, and computational methods that are used to describe and measure the parameters that describe the performance of signal generators and waveform recorders and analyzers. The TC-10 has developed and maintains the following documentary standards: IEEE Std 181–2011, Standard on Transitions, Pulses, and Related Waveforms [1]; IEEE Std 1057–2017, Standard for Digitizing Waveform Recorders [2]; IEEE Std 1241–2010, Standard for Terminology and Test Methods for Ana-log-to-Digital Converters [3]; IEEE Std 658–2011, Standard for Terminology and Test Methods for Digital-to-Analog Converters [4]; the IEEE Std 1696–2013, Standard for Terminology and Test Methods for Circuit Probes [5]; and the IEEE Std 2414–2020, Standard for Jitter and Phase Noise [6]. Additional information on these standards can be found in [7].
