DCNTS-Dual Core Noise Test System

The DCNTS is a two channel Phase and Amplitude noise analyzer. Its dual demodulator architecture allows the system to use cross-correlation to cancel its internal noise and limitation; it is like comparing the outputs of 2 systems and only display the similarities while rejecting differences.

​

It is capable of measuring absolute phase or amplitude noise but also residual phase noise under CW or pulsed conditions. The input frequency goes from a few MHz to 140 GHz. Residual noise testing is for devices like frequency multipliers or dividers, amplifiers or any other phase coherent input to output device.

​

Pulse compatible, the system is perfect for very demanding Defense and Aerospace applications. Its state of the art dynamic range makes it the lowest noise floor instrument of the market.

​

Why the DCNTS series ?

  • Lowest noise floor of the industry: -195 dBc/Hz !

  • Two channel architecture to use cross-correlation processing

  • All kinds of methods available, the "swiss army knife" for phase noise testing

  • Pulsed signals or standard CW type

  • Residual/Additive Phase Noise Measurements

  • Absolute Phase or amplitude noise measurments

  • Extensive Jitter computation library

  • Fast ATE System
