Highly stable voltages are crucial for precision ion traps. We are developing and characterizing a suitable voltage source for the BASE (Baryon-Antibaryon Symmetry Experiment) collaboration at CERN, which operates several Penning traps. These precision traps are used to perform test of the fundamental symmetry (CPT) between matter and antimatter with (anti-)protons, for instance via comparison of the g-factors. The determination of these quantities requires several frequency measurements whose precision can be limited by the stability of the voltages which bias the trap electrodes.

For this purpose, one ultra-stable LTZ1000 voltage reference and five 20 bit DACs have been combined into a programmable 5-channel voltage source. This scalable setup aims at long-term stability, low temperature drift, µV resolution over a ± 10 V range, and an output current of up to 20 mA per channel. Prior tests with a 2-channel prototype indicate a fractional stability of < 5 · 10−8 at τ = 102...103 s (at 7 V). The status of the project will be presented and the performance of the voltage source will be discussed.
