ERIES
The NC500SM Noise Source series is an economical solution for built-in test
applications. These small surface mount modules are self-contained with all the
bias circuits, eliminating the need for external components.
Insensitive to temperature variations, these modules produce extremely flat out-
put power versus frequency characteristics. The modules typically require <10
mA and produce a minimum of 31 dB ENR of white Gaussian noise.
