The NC3250A is a calibrated coaxial AWGN noise source in the NC3000 Series, designed for radar and satellite communications system testing with a frequency range of 2 to 50 GHz and a noise output exceeding 15 dB ENR. It features a 1.85 mm V male or female connector, 1 GHz step calibration frequencies, and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +85°C with storage from -65°C to +125°C. Input power is +28 VDC at 20 mA typical, with rise and fall times less than 1 µs and VSWR less than 3:1. The device includes hermetically sealed noise diodes and comes with full-band calibration data.
The NC3000 Series calibrated coaxial AWGN sources are well suited for receiver testing, noise figure measurements, or applications that require broadband noise and fast switching times. Several models include output isolators, and voltage regulators that provide excellent stability over varying temperature and voltage ranges. The NC3000 Series includes the NC3100 units with 15 dB ENR output for noise-figure meters, and the NC3200 Series high-output noise sources with outputs between 26 and 35 dB ENR for radar and satellite communications system testing.
