This folder contains three tools to help in understandning and managing noise in cicuits. The included tools are:
A noise generator tool - This is a Lab View 4-Run Time executable that generates Gaussian white noise, uniform white noise, 1/f noise, short noise, and 60Hz line noise. Temporal data, spectrum and amplitude histogram are given.
A noise calculator tool - This is an Excel spreadsheet that calculates the spot noise and integrated noise over a user specified bandwidth for inverting, non-inverting and transimpedance topology op amp circuits. Performance parameters are installed for all signal op amps. The user specifies the op amp, temperature, spot noise frequency and resistor values.
Examples of types of noise - Unzip this file to get four ".wav" files. Each file is a different type of noise that may be encountered in a system. The files are "white noise", "pink or 1/f noise", "brown noise", and "popcorn noise."
