GC6002

GC6001 – GC6003 TM ® POWER GENERATION Microwave Noise Diodes RoHS Compliant DESCRIPTION The GC6000 series of RF/Microwave noise diodes represent the state of the art in noise device technology. By carefully controlling junction doping profiles and mesa geometry, these devices provide the broadest, most uniform noise response available. Outputs are true symmetrical Gaussian white noise with predictable thermal performance. Choose from dozens of case style, including glass, ceramic as well as EPSM® (enhanced performance surface mount) for commercial pick and place assembly and die form for hybrid systems. KEY FEATURES  Multi-Octave Bandwidth  Wide Bias Window  Uniform Power Output  High Reliability  RoHS Compliant 1 www.MICROSEMI.com APPLICATIONS The GC6000 Series of devices are designed to generate white noise for test equipment and specialty ECM applications. These devices can be used in narrow and broadband noise sources for Noise Figure testing as well as RF Fuses. APPLICATIONS/BENEFITS  RF Fuses  Noise Sources  Noises Figure Calibration  Spectrum Analyzers  Signal Path Fade Test Sets ELECTRICAL PARAMETERS @ 25C (unless otherwise specified) Model Number GC6001 GC6002 GC6003 VB(V) @IR=1mA CJ(pF)1 @-6V (Typ.)
