The NC3290M is a calibrated coaxial noise source in the NC3000 Series, designed for broadband noise generation in radar and satellite communications testing. It operates from 2 to 90 GHz with a noise output exceeding 15 dB ENR and uses a 1.0 mm male connector. It has a rise and fall time of less than 1 µs, a VSWR of less than 3:1, and operates over a temperature range of -55 °C to +85 °C with a storage range of -65 °C to +125 °C. Input power is +28 VDC at 20 mA typical. Calibration data is provided for the full frequency band, and the device features hermetically sealed noise diodes. The NC3000 Series is AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 certified.
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.
