The Type 1390-B Random-Noise Generator (Figure 1) provides a high level of electrical noise at its output terminals. This type of signal is useful in room acoustic measurements, loudspeaker and microphone tests, psychoacoustic tests, filter tests, crosstalk measurements for multichannel carrier systems, calibration checks on recording systems, modulation of signal generators and test oscillators, tests of rms response of meters, observation of resonance in systems, electrical averaging of resonant responses, and comparisons of effective band width. A pair of these generators can be used as signal sources for demonstration of various degrees of correlation, possible errors of random sampling, and other concepts of statistical theory.
