Phase noise measurement

Over 20 years of research both at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and in private industry have been dedicated to the research and development of Symmetricom’s phase noise and Allan deviation (ADEV) test sets.

The digital, state-of-the-art test sets bring a paradigm shift to the way that phase noise and ADEV measurements are made. What was once a complicated and costly procedure has now been made easier, more accurate and more cost effective.

Typically used to characterize high precision oscillators and atomic clocks, Symmetricom’s test sets are simple one-box solutions that characterize even the lowest noise references more accurately than ever before.
