Pasternack’s new noise sources include nine models with industry standard SMT gullwing pin and dual in-line pin (DIP) surface mount packaging options. They cover frequency ranges from 0.2MHz to 3GHz and provide a source of additive white gaussian noise (AWGN) with a crest factor of 5:1.
The SMT gullwing pin models in this line feature high output ENR levels ranging from 31 dB to 51 dB. The DIP models boast a noise output power level of -5dBm. These rugged 50 Ohm designs require DC voltage levels of +12 or +15Vdc and can operate over a wide temperature range of -55 to +125°C.
“Pasternack now offers a comprehensive selection of miniature SMT packaged noise sources to address the needs of designers for circuit board level proof-of-concept or prototype applications. These products normally require eight to ten week lead times, but we are able to provide them quickly with same-day shipping and no minimum order quantity,” said Tim Galla, Senior Product Line Manager at Pasternack.
