IDT Expands Industry's Highest-Bandwidth and Lowest-Resistance 3.3-Volt Bus Switch Family; QuickSwitch Family Targets High-Speed Data Communications Applications.Business Editors, High-Tech Writers SANTA CLARA Santa Clara, city, Cuba Santa Clara (sän`tä klä`rä), city (1994 est. pop. 217,000), capital of Villa Clara prov., central Cuba. , Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 27, 2001 IDT IDT Integrated Device Technology, Inc. (Santa Clara, CA, USA) IDT I Don't Think IDT Identity Theft IDT Interrupt Descriptor Table IDT Integrated DNA Technologies IDT Inactive Duty Training IDT Instructional Design & Technology (Integrated Device Technology IDT (NASDAQ: IDTI) was founded in 1980 as a semiconductor vendor. Employing approximately 2500 people worldwide, headquartered in San Jose, California and operating a fab in Hillsboro, Oregon, the company both designs and fabricates semiconductor components. , Inc.) (Nasdaq:IDTI IDTI Integrated Device Technology Inc ), a leading communications IC provider, today announced the extension of its QuickSwitch(TM) bus switch family for the enterprise/carrier-class and access infrastructure markets. IDT is offering seven new QuickSwitch devices and is expanding the feature set of its existing QuickSwitch products to include a faster enable/disable time than previous iterations. All IDT QuickSwitch devices offer the highest bandwidth and lowest on resistance (Ron) available for 3.3-volt bus switch devices. IDT's QuickSwitch products can pass high-frequency data signals up to 500 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. , while the charge pump A charge pump is an electronic circuit that uses capacitors as energy storage elements to create either a higher or lower voltage power source. Charge pump circuits are capable of high efficiencies, sometimes as high as 90-95% while being electrically simple circuits. technology provides very low and very flat Ron over the operating range. Flat Ron combined with very low ON capacitance capacitance, in electricity, capability of a body, system, circuit, or device for storing electric charge. Capacitance is expressed as the ratio of stored charge in coulombs to the impressed potential difference in volts. results in high-signal integrity through the devices, enabling them to pass high-frequency data. In addition, input signals up to five volts can be passed through the 3.3-volt QuickSwitch devices. The QuickSwitch family offers a wide array of configurations and an advanced suite of features to address high-speed data switching within communications applications. The family also provides a solution for voltage translation, having the capability to translate 3.3-volt signals to 2.5-volt or 1.8-volt signals, depending on a device's input requirements. "By offering a broad, inclusive range of switching devices, customers recognize IDT as a one-stop shopping solution," said Kevin Walsh, director of strategic marketing for IDT's timing and logic product division. "The expansion of the 3.3-volt QuickSwitch family reinforces IDT's ability to keep pace with today's communications applications as they increasingly demand more bandwidth and higher performance." The QuickSwitch family of application-specific products complements IDT's portfolio of CBTLV CBTLV Low-Voltage Crossbar Technology (family of logic integrated circuits) general-purpose bus switches. IDT introduced the CBTLV bus switches and its alternate sourcing agreement with Texas Instruments See TI. (company) Texas Instruments - (TI) A US electronics company. A TI engineer, Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit in 1958. Three TI employees left the company in 1982 to start Compaq. in April 2001. Pricing and Availability The 3.3-volt QuickSwitch devices are available now and are offered in TSSOP TSSOP Thin Shrink Small Outline Package TSSOP Thin Scale Small Outline Package , QSOP QSOP Quarter Size Outline Package QSOP Quarter Small Outline Package QSOP Quad Small Outline Package QSOP Quadripartite Standing Operating Procedures QSOP Quarterly Standing Order Plan QSOP Quality Standard Operating Procedure QSOP Quarter Sized Outline Package and SOIC (Small Outline IC) A small-dimension, plastic, rectangular, surface mount chip package that uses gull-wing pins extending outward.
