Menlo Microsystems, Inc. (Menlo Micro), has announced a new double-pole/double-throw (DPDT) switch providing the high performance and data rates for high-speed differential switching applications.

The new MM5600 DPDT switch offers high-speed operation from DC to 20 GHz or 40 Gbps, significantly outperforming conventional electromechanical (EM) relays and solid-state switches.

The MM5600 switch’s flexible configuration also enables internal differential crossover capabilities, greatly simplifying board routing. According to the company, the MM5600 provides the following:

  • Fast switching
  • Reliable solution
  • Compact design
  • Power efficient
  • Differential modes
  • ESD protection
  • Leading IP3 linearity.
