www.MICROSEMI.com GC6001 GC6003 GC6001 GC6003 GC6001 GC6003 POWER GENERATION TM Microwave Noise Diodes RoHS Compliant DESCRIPTION KEY FEATURES Multi-Octave Bandwidth The GC6000 series of RF/Microwave noise diodes represent the state of the art in noise device technology. By carefully controlling junction Wide Bias Window doping profiles and mesa geometry, these devices provide the Uniform Power Output broadest, most uniform noise response available. Outputs are true symmetrical Gaussian white noise with predictable thermal High Reliability 1 performance. Choose from dozens of case style, including glass, RoHS Compliant ceramic as well as EPSM (enhanced performance surface mount) for commercial pick and place assembly and die form for hybrid systems. APPLICATIONS/BENEFITS APPLICATIONS RF Fuses The GC6000 Series of devices are designed to generate white noise for test equipment and specialty ECM applications. These devices Noise Sources can be used in narrow and broadband noise sources for Noise Figure Noises Figure Calibration testing as well as RF Fuses.
