Noise Temperature to Noise Figure Conversion Calculator

Noise Temperature is a way of expressing the noise in an electronic system in terms of an equivalent temperature. It is not the physical temperature of the system, but a theoretical value that indicates an equivalent temperature required to produce a specific amount of noise power in the system.

Noise Temperature can be used to characterize and evaluate various systems such as measuring the noise level in front-end amplifiers and cascaded amplifier stages. Other applications include radio astronomy and radar receivers.

Noise Figure is the measure of signal degradation caused by various components in a system. It is used to characterize the performance of electronic circuits, radar receivers, amplifiers, communication systems, and other circuits. Noise figure is defined as the logarithmic value of noise factor, which is the measure degradation of the signal to noise ratio (SNR) of a system. A lower noise figure is required to ensure high signal strength and better performance of the system.

Formula for Converting from Noise Temperature to Noise Figure

This tool helps allows users to enter the noise temperature as input in Kelvins, which will be converted into its equivalent noise figure value in decibels.
