Mux switches deliver wide-bandwidth signal paths
A pair of 2:1 multiplexer/1:2 demultiplexer switches from Toshiba support PCIe 6.0 and USB4 Version 2.0 interfaces with bandwidths up to 34 GHz. The TDS5C212MX and TDS5B212MX are designed for reliable switching of high-speed differential signals in servers, industrial testers, robots, and PCs.
Manufactured using Toshiba’s TarfSOI (Toshiba advanced RF SOI) process, the TDS5C212MX and TDS5B212MX achieve typical differential 3-dB bandwidths of 34 GHz and 29 GHz, respectively. These wide bandwidths help suppress signal waveform distortion and improve reliability in high-speed data transmission.
The switches differ in their pin layouts. The TDS5C212MX minimizes signal path length to reduce reflections and losses, improving high-speed signal integrity. The TDS5B212MX retains the same pin layout as conventional products. Both devices operate over a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and are now shipping.
