Hi,
I'm trying to understand the specifications of a power supply..
It is said that the output will be having noise levels < -110dBm/Hz in the frequency range 1MHz-100MHz
I was trying to find out what will be the maximum output ripple from that power supply. I did the following calculations, can somebody tell me if i ve made any mistake??
-110dBm =9.999999999999987e-15 W
Considering reference =50Ohms
P=V2/R
V=sqrt(P*R)
=sqrt [(9.999999999999987e-15 W)*50]
=7.0710678118654706478143659084881e-7
=707.1067nV
Since i began with per Hz noise im assuming what i got is
nV/√Hz
ie noise will be 707.1067nV/√Hz
Since this is noise energy in 1Hz
i took the the bandwidth square root √99MHz =9949.8743710661995473447982100121
Multiplying this with 707.1067nV/√Hz *9949.8743710661995473447982100121√Hz =0.0070356236397351397586930793424713
=7.035mV RMS noise voltage in the bandwidth
Am i right?
Thanks for any help
Regards
