Features
The Noise Com programmable DNG7500, generates pseudo-random noise and CW signals for RF, Microwave, and digital applications. It can provide up to a 70 MHz wide RF output to emulate real-world noise and interference conditions. The user can create many complex waveforms, including digital notches, and burst pattern waveforms The Large 8.4 “ color display contains unit block diagrams and tabular signal parameter values making the creation and storage of waveforms intuitive and efficient. The signals can be up-converted to your band of interest with an optional LO and mixer. User created MatLAB data files can be imported for digital conversion and subsequent analog signal output. An optional dual channel output allows for cost effective ATE test systems.
The Noise Com DNG7500, generates programmable, user specified, pseudo-noise and CW signal spectrums for RF, Microwave, and Fiber Optic equipment testing. It can provide a 70 MHz RF spectrum output including noise and CW waveforms to precisely emulate real-world noise and interference conditions. Noise and Signal parameters can be entered via keypad and a 8.4 inch color GUIGraphical User Interface. It can also generate signals from data files supplied by the user and downloaded via an optional Ethernet remote interface.
The unit comes standard with a GPIB, IEEE-488, remote interface.
The DNG7500 can provide digitally simulated Additive White Gaussian Noise-AWGN with the following user settable parameters: precise start and stop frequencies with brick wall filters; tilt; notch (stop-band) filters with programmable frequency, bandwidth, and depth. The DNG7500 can generate any combination of noise and signals adjacent or occupying overlapping frequency positions with precise relative amplitudes.
CW signals are generated with user programmable amplitude and frequency.
Optionally, other types of signals can be included or loaded by the user via Ethernet.
At the heart of the DNG7500 is a state-of-the-art 14-bit, 150 M-Sample/s AWG-Arbitrary Waveform Generator with up to 64 M-Bytes of memory. This allows the most accurate signal and noise simulation to date.
