CPPC8Z-A7BR-1.544TS

Oscillators are broadly classified into two types, namely mechanical and electronic. The former are typically associated with an external force such as a clockwork-driven pendulum, while the latter require energy supplied by an AC or DC power source. The CPPC8Z-A7BR-1.544TS is an electronic oscillator that uses the dynamic principle of forced damped oscillations to generate a steady, periodic output waveform.

The CPPC8Z-A7BR-1.544TS is a crystal oscillator that includes an AT-Cut crystal as its core frequency-determining element. It is equipped with a resonator such as quartz, which drives the oscillator through electrical feedback. The crystal is a thin piezoelectric material cut in the shape of a geometrically perfect AT-Cut, and mounted inside a metal housing. The crystal is connected to two small gold pins that protrude from the metal housing.

The CPPC8Z-A7BR-1.544TS functions by exciting the AT-Cut crystal from a DC power supply, which generates an electric current through the crystal. This electric current is converted back into a mechanical movement by the thin crystal slice. As the crystal vibrates, a periodic wave, or oscillation, is produced. The frequency of the oscillations is determined by the geometry of the AT-Cut and can vary from as low as 1 Hz to as high as 4 GHz.

Due to their high stability and accuracy, crystal oscillators are widely used in various applications that require precise timing. The CPPC8Z-A7BR-1.544TS is suitable for a variety of applications such as clock oscillators for microprocessors, MCUs and FPGAs, radio frequency base stations for satellite communication, and precision timing instruments. It can also be used as a frequency reference in communications, navigation, and instrumentation systems.

Given its features, the CPPC8Z-A7BR-1.544TS is an ideal crystal oscillator for a wide range of applications where precise frequency control, low power consumption, and long-term stability are essential. Its unique characteristics make the CPPC8Z-A7BR-1.544TS an efficient and cost-effective means of providing reliable performance while keeping size and power consumption under control.
