Description |
|
ELVA-1's calibrated noise source ISSN-XX series delivers a uniform level of noise power spectral density within the whole waveguide frequency range. Sources are available in eight waveguide bands covering 26.4-170 GHz. A Silicon IMPATT diode is employed as a fundamental building block of the source. High stability of the device allows it to be used for test and instrumentation applications in place of gas-tube noise sources. Low DC power requirements eliminate the need for complex high voltage supplies. There are two operation modes: CW mode and pulsed AM mode with modulation frequency up to 1 kHz. Typical value of excess noise ratio (ENR) as a function of frequency is given on the plot below. |

Notes:
-
Power/ Triggering Inversion Switch can be used for manual ON/OFF. “INV” position is ON.
-
Microwave power can be switched with TTL-level control voltage.
-
If Triggering Inversion Switch is in OFF (Down) position active level is high, otherwise (INV position) – active level is low.
-
Each source supplied calibrated relative to liquid nitrogen cooled load.

Notes:
-
Maximum operating temperature is +60°C
-
Diode operating current is 50…100 mA.
-
A limiting value of modulation frequency is 1 kHz (external triggering).
-
Triggering signal amplitude is TTL level.
-
Bias voltage is +18 V It is possible to supply the noise source with +28VDC biasing for the compatibility with commonly used noise meters.
-
External triggering connector is SMA female
-
ENR would be increased for narrower bandwidth. Please contact factory.
-
For higher frequency models please contact factory.
Power supply for input power 220VAC/50Hz, 110VAC/60Hz or 100VAC/50Hz are available optionally.
For the precision control and fast modulation of the output power of the source Voltage Controlled Attenuator VCVA-XX series can be supplied optionally
