Phase noise is the result of small random fluctuations or uncertainty in the phase of an electronic signal. We specify and measure phase noise because it is a fundamental limitation in the performance ...

The behavior of analog circuits can often be characterized by sweeping their inputs with a signal going across a range of frequencies and then observing the output. These sweeps can be composed of ...

White noise is very useful in testing many types of circuits. When combined with an FFT analyzer, a flat noise source can make for quick and easy gain plots of circuits. If the noise into a circuit is ...

[Hans] wanted to see the frequency response of a bandpass filter but didn’t have a lot of test equipment. Using an RTL-SDR dongle, some software and a quickly made noise generator, he still managed to ...

All electronic circuits and equipment receive input signals and process them into new and different output signals. When you’re designing and testing circuits and equipment, where do you get those ...
