Maury MW - Diodes - NC520 Series
- Complete bias circuits
- Requires no external components
- Optimizations available for frequency range and output levels
The NC520 low voltage (surface mount) noise module is an economic solution for built-in test requirements. It contains complete bias circuits and require no external components.
The surface mount package is suitable for mounting on microstrip. The modules produce extremely flat output power versus frequency characteristic that is insensitive to temperature and voltage variations.
Typical applications for the NC520 module includes built-in test equipment (bite), signal strength meters for cellular, pcs, catv, calibrators, spectrum analyzers, radar warning receivers (rwr), and dither A/D quantization error. Maury can optimize frequency range and output levels for specific applications.

More Product Information
- AWGN as high as +13 dBm
- Bandwidths up to 18 GHz
- Bandwidth, output power, and flatness can be modified for specific applications
- TTL controlled attenuation
The NC1000 Series amplified noise modules produce AWGN as high as +13 dBm, and have bandwidths up to 18 GHz. The high power modules are designed to test noise immunity for Cable TV equipment, secure communication channels, and military jamming systems. The lower power modules, <= 0 dBm, are random jitter sources for many applications including, PCIexpress, Infiniband, and 10 GigE. The Bandwidth, output power, and flatness can be modified for specific applications. A newly developed TTL controlled attenuation feature is also available.

The LWP series Lightwave Probe enables optical measurements for on-wafer and hybrid photonics devices. It features user replaceable fiber pigtails allowing the probe to be optimized for a variety of light delivery and light collection applications including the characterization of topside illuminated photodiodes, Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSELs), hybrid transmitters and receivers, and LEDs.
- Ideal for applications requiring high ENR and immunity to large incident RF power
- Low VSWR
- Built-in isolator
The NC3400 Series coaxial AWGN noise sources are an excellent choice for applications requiring high ENR and immunity to large incident RF power, such as ATE, radiometer, and radar systems. The calibration accuracy and flatness of the NC3400 Series noise sources are enhanced by their low VSWR. The built-in isolator provides almost constant output impedance as the noise source bias is switched on and off. The isolator also protects the noise diode from incident RF power (consult the factory for higherpower units).
An SMA female connector is standard for the RF output and a BNC female connector is standard for the bias input. Other connectors are available as options.
- 5” touch screen display
- Noise output through female N connector
- Ethernet connection for remote control
The NGX1000 programmable noise generator is a high performance, broadband additive white gaussian noise (AWGN) generator in an easy-to-use compact form factor. The streamlined user interface and flat menu structure provides a fast, simple way to add RF noise in a communications system to test reliability, robustness and performance.
All functionality of the generator is accessible through the 5” touch screen or via remote control through an ethernet connection delivering flexible, programmable noise generation for broad use in semiconductor, military, aerospace, satellite, medical and communications applications.
Not all amplifiers are created equal, so how can you be certain that an amplifier will work for your needs? You deserve to be confident that the amplifiers used with your test-and measurement lab benches will meet the requirements of your specific applications, are reliable, and are equally well-supported pre-and post-sale. When it comes to application expertise, reliability and support, there is no company that does it better than Maury.
- Calibration-grade metrology standards
- Used for VNA calibration and/or calibration validation
A precision fixed termination (or load) consists of an immovable, (fixed) termination which, when mated to the end of a trans-mission line or cable, absorbs nearly all of the signal energy traveling toward it. An ideal “matched” condition exists when a termination with an impedance value of Z0, is connected to the end of a transmission line or cable that also has a characteristic impedance of Z0. Such an ideal “matched” condition (one with no mismatch between the termination and its mated line or cable) is critical if a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 1.0:1 is to be achieved in a system with a 50 or 75 ohm impedance value. Simply put, the more closely the 1.0:1 ratio is approached, the more accurate the measurements that can be made from a system.
