The NC102 is a noise diode designed for audio and RF applications, generating white Gaussian noise with a frequency range of 0.1 Hz to 500 kHz. It operates at a bias voltage of 7 to 10 V and a current of 30 to 60 μA, with a load resistance of 2200 Ω and a minimum output of 3.0 μV/√Hz. The diode is housed in a DO-35 package and is hermetically sealed. Operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C, with a storage temperature range of -65°C to +150°C.
Noise diodes are the fundamental building blocks for analog noise systems. They are categorized for performance characteristics that enhance their broadband noise output and flat spectral response. All Maury noise diodes can deliver symmetrical white Gaussian noise and flat output power versus frequency*.
* Flatness and output power are dependent upon peripheral circuit characteristics
