Noise diodes are the fundamental building blocks for analog noise systems. They are categorized for performance characteristics that enhance their broadband noise output and flat spectral response. All Maury noise diodes can deliver symmetrical white Gaussian noise and flat output power versus frequency*.
* Flatness and output power are dependent upon peripheral circuit characteristics
Flexibility

- Probe cards and/or up to eight positioners
- Use with liquid nitrogen or helium, depending on the target temperature. Or use of cryo-cooler for dry-cooling option.
- Accessories available, such as black bodies and optical motion analysis tools
- Optional upgrade for 300 mm wafer
- Designed for industrial environments
- Covers wide range of measurements (I-V, C-V, RF, MEMS, OPTO)
- Ideal for small structures
