The NC1124A is a high crest factor amplified noise module in the NC1000 series, generating white Gaussian noise with an output power of -10 dBm and a noise density of -103 dBm/Hz across a frequency range of 2 GHz to 4 GHz. It operates with a 50 Ω load impedance and standard +15 VDC supply, maintains a flatness of ±2.5 dB, and has an output connector of SMA female. Operating temperature ranges from -35°C to +100°C, with storage temperature from -65°C to +150°C. The module conforms to the series' typical temperature coefficient of 0.025 dB/°C and supply voltage sensitivity of 0.25 dB/1% ∆V. It is packaged in a standard case with dimensions specified for Package 3.
The NC1000 Series amplified noise modules produce AWGN as high as +13 dBm, and have bandwidths up to 18 GHz. The high power modules are designed to test noise immunity for Cable TV equipment, secure communication channels, and military jamming systems. The lower power modules, <= 0 dBm, are random jitter sources for many applications including, PCIexpress, Infiniband, and 10 GigE. The Bandwidth, output power, and flatness can be modified for specific applications. A newly developed TTL controlled attenuation feature is also available.
