Data Sheet Noise Modules for bite The NC500 (through hole) and NC500SM (surface mount) Series When ordering, add the suffix “SM” to the model number noise modules are an economical solution for built-in test re- to denote the surface mount version. If the suffix is not in- quirements. They contain complete bias circuits and require no cluded, the drop-in version (through hole) will be supplied. external components. (Optional custom screening available). Add suffix R for RoHS compliant. The surface mount package is suitable for mounting on microstrip. The modules produce extremely flat output power versus frequency characteristic that is insensitive to temperature and voltage variations. • Built-in test equipment (bite) The NC500 Series modules are housed in a TO-8 metal can, and require 0.2 to 10 mA, while the NC500SM Series modules are housed in a surface mount plastic package. Both typically require 5 mA and produce a minimum of 31 dB enr of white Gaussian noise. The NC510 and NC510SM Series typically require 30 mA and have higher output with a minimum of 51 dB enr. Typical applications for these noise modules include built-in test • Signal strength meters for cellular, pcs and catv • Calibrators • Spectrum analyzers • Radar warning receivers (rwr) • Dither A/D quantization error • Gain-bandwidth product testing equipment (bite), signal strength meters for cellular, pcs, catv, calibrators, spectrum analyzers, radar warning receivers (rwr), and dither A/D quantization error. Noise Com can optimize frequency range, voltage and output levels for specific applications. Most models are available from stock.
