Abstract
We consider a model for independent charged particles, hopping on a lattice with static disorder in the waiting times. The excess current noise is calculated and shown to be related to resistance noise and arising from mobility fluctuations. It is also related to the four point super-Burnett-function. The strength of the noise is calculated at small frequencies for weak disorder (classical long time tails) and for strong disorder, when it may behave like I/f. In that case the Hooge factor equals the fraction of deep trapping centers.
