Flicker Noise Measurement System Delivers Measurements From 1 Hz To 30 MHz

The EDGE embarks as the only flicker noise measurement system certified to provide accurate measurements from 1 Hz to 30 MHz as well as the industry’s only fully integrated measurement system of its kind. This is in contrast to traditional flicker noise measurement systems, which consist of elements from as many as five different vendors. A turnkey, one-vendor system, the EDGE provides simple access to flicker noise data with a background noise typically less than 1.2 nV/ÖHz at 100 kHz and above. It switches between flicker and dc measurements with push-button automation, providing both sets of measurements, over temperature, in one system. This allegedly eliminates risky transfer of the wafer from one measurement station to another. Available now, price for the EDGE is $1,200,000. CASCADE MICROTECH INC., Beaverton, OR. (800) 550-3279.
