  1. 1.

    What generates thermal noise?

    Hint

    Consider how temperature affects noise levels.

  2. 2.

    What is flicker noise commonly associated with?

    Hint

    Think about where you see analog signals mostly.

  3. 3.

    What type of noise is generated from random electron movement?

    • Thermal Noise
    • Flicker Noise
