The NC5128A is a precision calibrated millimeter-wave waveguide noise source for the 26.5 to 40 GHz band, featuring a 15.5 dB typical ENR, ±1.5 dB output flatness, and a VSWR of 1.3:1 with an output isolator. It uses a WR28 waveguide with a UG599/U flange, operates from 0 to +85°C, and draws a maximum of 30 mA at +28 VDC. Rise and fall times are less than 1 μs, with temperature drift under 0.01 dB/°C and voltage sensitivity under 0.1 dB per 1% voltage change. The standard input bias connector is a female BNC.
The NC5000A Series AWGN noise sources feature outstanding stability, switching speed, and ripple-free response over standard waveguide bands. The high stability of the NC5000A Series allows these units to be used in place of cumbersome gas tube noise sources.
Ripple in the output of noise sources has a direct effect on measurement accuracy, so Noisecom has tailored the response of the NC5000A Series so that ripple is minimized throughout the specified frequency range.
The standard input bias connector is bnc female.
