On Constitution class starships the dilithium crystal converter assembly was a separate unit from the intermix chamber. It consisted of the matter/antimatter integrator or reactor which channels the reactor energy to the dilithium crystal converter assembly to be energized into warp plasma for the warp engine nacelles. (TOS: "That Which Survives" , "Elaan of Troyius" ) The dilithium articulation frame was housed inside the M/ARA, behind the dilithium chamber hatch. (TNG: "Skin of Evil" , "The Drumhead" ) On monitors it was also displayed as matter/antimatter input system. (ENT: "The Catwalk")

| - On Constitution class starships the dilithium crystal converter assembly was a separate unit from the intermix chamber. It consisted of the matter/antimatter integrator or reactor which channels the reactor energy to the dilithium crystal converter assembly to be energized into warp plasma for the warp engine nacelles. (TOS: "That Which Survives" , "Elaan of Troyius" ) The dilithium articulation frame was housed inside the M/ARA, behind the dilithium chamber hatch. (TNG: "Skin of Evil" , "The Drumhead" ) On monitors it was also displayed as matter/antimatter input system. (ENT: "The Catwalk") The prototype Jem'Hadar battleship had a fatal design flaw; the braces holding together the ship's M/ARA were vulnerable to a specific type of radiation. The crew of the USS Valiant believed they could use this flaw to their advantage when they were plotting the ship's destruction in 2374. (DS9: "Valiant") On Federation starships, this type of reactor is often used as a warp core, powering the warp drive. The most common version of this system was fueled by slush or liquified deuterium, and its antimatter counterpart, anti-deuterium. These elements were funneled through magnetic constrictors and combined within a dilithium crystal to create a stream of highly energized electro-plasma which is routed to the warp coils within the vessel's nacelles, creating a warp field.
