SMN7103H-D1C-EVAL

SMN7103H 1/2 INCH SURFACE MOUNT AMPLIFIED NOISE SOURCE D ESCRIPTION The SMN7103H noise module is designed for a wide range of applications. It features high noise output amplitude for uses ranging from encryption to baseband signal simulation. All biasing and amplification circuitry is built-in making it easy to design into your system. It features a built-in voltage regulator for highly stable output even if your DC supply lines are not. 100 HZ TO 500 KHZ S UITABLE 7103H FOR H IGH V OLUME P RODUCTS : The SMN7103H noise sources being surface mount, having a small footprint and available on tape and reel, make them ideal for production manufacturing. Traditionally packaged noise sources have been large and costly rendering them less suitable for all but the more expensive, exotic systems. Noise can now be thought of as lower cost, more reliable, smaller and an easier to implement alternative to costly microprocessor based solutions such as PN generators, arbtrary waveform generators and DSP processors.

Baseband Signal Simulation: Signal impariments can be modeled by using a noise source where ever a Gaussian process is required. By feeding the output of the noise source into the control lines of devices such as attenuators, phase shifters or the LO port of a mixer, one can simulate various impairments such as rain fade, Rayleigh fading, etc.... 2. Random Number Generation for Encryption: Noise sources being truly random (not pseudorandom) give the ultimate in secure communication because of their ability to generate a truly random number pattern. This can be used to seed an encryption key for authentication. The noise signal can be fed directly into an A/D converter for sampling or a simpler techniques might use a comparator. Further shaping of the noise is often employed whether by analog techniques if in front of the A/D converter or afterwards using DSP.
