Revolutionary 64Gbps MEMS switch with fully integrated Loopback Path

Menlo Micro introduces the World’s First System-In-Package Switch Solution for High-Speed Digital Applications supporting PCI Express GEN6

64Gbps MEMS switch loopback

Menlo Micro introduces the Differential Dual DP3T relay, designed to support high-speed differential signal switching in demanding applications like PCIe Gen 6, SerDes. The MM5620, built on Menlo’s proprietary Ideal Switch® technology, offers fast switching speed of up to 64 GT/s or 20 GHz, ideal for high-performance systems.

This solution, 64Gbps MEMS switch with Loopback, boasts low insertion loss and the ability to perform over 3 billion switching cycles, making it a reliable choice for demanding applications. The MM5620’s integrated charge pump and driver can be easily controlled via SPI or GPIO interfaces by the host processor.

Structure

The MM5620 is 2x double-pole/triple-throw (DP3T) switch. It reduces Cost-of-Test for complicated High-Speed Digital applications. The MM5620 switch’s system-in-package (SiP) solution fully integrates the switch driver and charge pump, along with loopback capacitors, offering significant board footprint reduction for high-volume production test solutions.
