An impedance bridge that compares two-terminal standard inductors to characterized AC resistors in the frequency range of 10 Hz to 100 kHz is described. A dual-channel, digitally-synthesized source and sampling digital multimeter are used to generate and measure relevant bridge signals. A linear interpolation algorithm is used to autocalibrate the bridge to a 1 nF gas dielectric capacitor. An intercomparison of the new bridge with existing measurement standards conducted in the low audio frequency range shows agreement of 50 to 200 parts in 10/sup 6/ for inductors for 1 mH to 10 H.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
