500 MHz Digital Switches

PI3CH digital bus switch products are ideally suited to address the operational requirements of next generation Servers, RAID, Super VGA, Memory Bank Switching, and Network/Telecom Backplanes.
The Low-voltage (2.5V/3.3V), High-bandwidth (500MHz) Bus Switches offer expanded performance capabilities that work well with PCI-X, and DDR-I / DDR-2 memory standards, while simplifying the I/O migration from parallel to serial differential signaling standards. The 5V I/O tolerance and beyond rail-to-rail capability makes the PI3CH Switch ideal for bridging legacy 5V I/O based platforms to next generation 2.5V/3V systems.
