CL2LAAT008D-C-T1 Inductors, Coils, Chokes

Delay lines pertain to a type of electrical component that can be used to extend the length of transmission lines in order to reduce signal distortion or to add delay to a given signal. The CL2LAAT008D-C-T1 is one example of a delay line, and its application and working principle shall be discussed in detail below.

Static Parameters

The CL2LAAT008D-C-T1 is a dip-packaged, surface-mounted laminate delay line with a maximum frequency of 3 GHz. It is thought of as 8 electrical terminals that can be used to store propagation waveforms onto it. The CL2LAAT008D-C-T1’s delay is determined by its static parameters, which include maximum propagation delay of 390 ns, an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, and an insertion loss of 1.3 dB maximum. Additionally, its input and output impedance are both 47 ohms.

Applications

Due to its high level of accuracy and low insertion loss, the CL2LAAT008D-C-T1 is useful for a variety of applications. It is often used in telecommunications, as a means of adjusting the timing offset of signals. This is useful when transmitting signals over long distances, and ensures that transmitted signals are received in the correct chronological order. As a result, it helps to increase the signal-to-noise ratio of exchanged information and improves the overall quality of the connection. Additionally, it is often used in the production of digital memories and data transmission systems.

Working Principle

The CL2LAAT008D-C-T1 functions on the principle of reflection and refraction of electromagnetic waves. All electrical signals propagate in the form of electromagnetic waves, but their speed and magnitude is determined by the properties of the transmission medium. The magnitude of an electromagnetic wave is determined by its wavelength, and this can be manipulated by introducing multiple layers of trace widths and dielectric constants in the delay line, which affects the speed of the incoming and outgoing waves.

When a signal is transmitted through the CL2LAAT008D-C-T1, it is first propagated through an outer trace layer, which is then reflected and refracted through the inner trace layers. These inner layers result in a delay for the signal, as the wavelength is increased in order to accommodate for the propagation time of the signal. Thus, the CL2LAAT008D-C-T1 is able to introduce a delay for a signal, while also keeping the signal’s magnitude intact.

Conclusion

The CL2LAAT008D-C-T1 delay line is a useful electrical component that is often used in the telecommunications field. Its applications include adjusting timing offsets of transmitted signals, and improving signal-to-noise ratios in digital memories and data transmission systems. The delay line works on the principle of reflection and refraction of electromagnetic waves, and is characterized by an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, and a maximum insertion loss of 1.3 dB. The CL2LAAT008D-C-T1 is an excellent example of a delay line.
