416F36025CDR

Crystals

The 416F36025CDR is a ceramic resonator in which the active material consists of ferroelectric crystals. It is used in frequency control and filtering components for optical communication systems. The 416F36025CDR is a symmetric structure, meaning it can be driven from either end. It has a low operating temperature range and low DC power consumption, making it the perfect choice for temperature- and power-sensitive applications.

The 416F36025CDR operates on the principle of piezoelectricity, which is the ability of certain crystals to generate electric voltage when they are mechanically stressed. The 416F36025CDR consists of two plates of a piezoelectric crystal material, separated by a thin gap filled with a dielectric material. When an AC voltage is applied to the crystal, the crystal expands, compressing the dielectric material. This compression generates a compensating electric field, creating a mechanical resonance inside the crystal.

The 416F36025CDR has two main application fields. In telecommunications, it is used in WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) systems and SONET/SDH (Synchronous Optical Network/Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) systems. In lighting systems, it is used in LED drivers and fixtures.

In WDM systems, the 416F36025CDR is used to stabilize the output power of multiplexers, amplifiers, and receivers by providing a reliable frequency control. It is also used for the filtering of signals. In the SONET/SDH system, the 416F36025CDR acts as an oscillator to create a stable and accurate clock signal for clock extraction and synchronization.

In lighting systems, the 416F36025CDR is used as an oscillator to control the frequency of the power supplied to an LED. It also serves to protect circuits against reactive spikes and surges to ensure factors of safety are met.

Overall, the 416F36025CDR is a highly efficient, low-cost ceramic resonator that enables reliable signal transmission over both short and long distances. It is capable of handling signal loads up to 50 Gb/s, making it the perfect choice for high-speed data communications.
