Abstract :
We have designed a multi-bit switch matrix for routing of digitized data streams from analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) to digital signal processors. A 2 times 2 version of the two-bit switch was designed and fabricated at HYPRES´s standard 4.5 kA/cm2 fabrication process. The switch was successfully tested and demonstrated at high speed. The switch has been used as a part of a multi-band ADC system, routing data streams from two modulators to two DSPs.
