understanding noise measurment
Aug 16th, 2006, 9:25am
 
I made a project of controling current by conecting current supply to the drain of transistor, and control the current by changing the Gate voltage.
I measured the noise at the output of the current supply and at the output of my circuit.
the spectrum measurment show adding  10dB noise by my circuit.
how can I explain that additive noise?

You may want to post a picture or more fully describe what you are doing.
It is a little unclear.

However, I believe you are seeing an amplification of the noise through a common source amplifier (ergo the current source)

hope that helps,
Jerry
