The new PI3USBxx (USB), PI3DBVxx (Video), and next generation PI3Lxx (LAN) switches offer switching solutions that address applications requiring up to 700 MHz of bandwidth.

"Pericom's new Broadband Differential Switch technology provides our valued customers new ways of switching these high-speed differential signals required to drive DVI, 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0, and Firewire interfaces while maintaining excellent signal integrity" explained Jeff DeAngelis, Director of Marketing.

These broadband switches provide wide operating bandwidths up to 700 MHz for TMDS & LVDS signaling standards by simultaneously minimizing both on-resistance (R-on), and on-capacitance (C-on). This technology also provides attributes in the memory product segment by offering users the ability to significantly reduce bus loading, thus resulting in the ability to double the memory capacity in common applications such as CompactFlash (CF) and PCMCIA Cards.
