Cryogenic Primary Noise Standard

VivaTech’s Cryogenic Noise Standard is a noise source with primary reference performance. Providing precision calibration of low noise components such as amplifiers,

diode noise sources or receiver systems, it offers the ultimate in performance. The unique design provides wide frequency coverage from 18 to 325 GHz in standard

waveguide bands, incorporating replaceable waveguide assemblies. The standard is particularly suited to mm and sub-mm wave [THz] low noise measurement

applications and operates to 500 GHz in custom versions.

General Features New side entry design enables convenient connections to waveguide systems Vertical or horizontal waveguide orientation – no mismatched bends or twists needed Low maintenance, compact temperature stabilization system – no water cooling Interchangeable waveguide feed-horn assemblies provide mm to sub-mm wave [THz] coverage Automatic or manual LN2 filling-auto fill minimizes LN2 use and allows continuous operation Convenient, fully automated operation with integrated PC Real time noise temperature display at any frequency with full data logging

Notes1. Typical average mid band noise temperature
