CT-425.000MCC-T

Oscillators are a type of electronic component that produce a periodic, oscillating electronic signal. The CT-425.000MCC-T is one such oscillator, used in applications where an accurate frequency output is required.

The CT-425.000MCC-T is a frequency control oscillator that employs a temperature compensated crystal oscillator (XO) or an oven controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO). It provides a frequency accuracy of ±2 x 10-6 parts per million (ppm) from -35°C to +85°C. The CT-425.000MCC-T can be used in systems where frequency stability is critical, such as in telecommunication, DAC/ ADC, RF, and test & measurement applications.

The working principle of the CT-425.000MCC-T is based on a temperature-compensated quartz crystal oscillator (TCXO). The core of the device uses an AT-cut crystal controlled by an external voltage. The device contains an “on chip” voltage regulator driving the crystal, and also allowing the oscillator to stay within frequency specifications even when the supply voltage is going through a temperature variation.Due to the use of the ACCEL technology the device has close to zero temperature drift. This temperature compensation makes the device suitable for applications operating in the -35ºC to +85ºC temperature range, with no need for further temperature control or compensation.

The oscillator uses a built-in bias circuit to create an initial startup frequency that is stable over temperature and supply voltage variations. This circuit also allows for precise frequency adjustment. The built-in bias circuit is able to produce a wide-range of frequency outputs by simply changing the reference voltage values. By utilizing this circuit, normal frequency adjustments can be completed with as little as 0.5V bias voltage, providing precise control.

The CT-425.000MCC-T is designed to be used in a wide range of applications. It is ideal for telecommunication applications, such as network synchronization and cellular base stations. It is also used in a variety of data acquisition, radio frequency, and other test & measurement applications.The device is capable of providing a reliable and accurate frequency output in a wide range of environments and can be used safely in temperatures ranging from -35°C to +85°C. It is an ideal choice for applications where frequency stability is essential.
