Description

The PE85N1007 is a coaxial packaged calibrated precision Noise Source module which operates over a wide frequency range

from 0.01 GHz to 18 GHz. The design features very low VSWR < 1.35:1 that significantly increases mesurement accuracy

and is ideal for Noise Figure measurements and built-in applications. This model operates at +28 Vdc and features an output

ENR level ranging from 13 to 17 dB with 10 MHz calibration points every GHz. Highly stable and accurate performance is

specified over -55°C to +85°C with Noise Output Temperature Variation <0.009 dB/°C and Noise Output Variation < 0.002

dB/%V. Maximum Reverse Power is 1 Watt. The rugged industry standard profile package design supports an input Female

BNC connector for DC bias and an output Male 3.5mm connector. Additionally, the model is designed to meet a variety

of demanding MIL-STD-202F environmental test conditions including Humidity, Thermal Shock, and Vibration for added

confidence for highly reliable operation.
