  • Modular switching arrangement
    Patent number: 7898359
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a switching arrangement and method of manufacturing such an arrangement, wherein first and second series-shunt diode structures (D1/D2, D3/D4) are connected to each other in a mirrored configuration to obtain a basic switching cell. This basic switching cell can be used to build a SPDT switch which in turn can be used to build a DPDT switch or switches of higher complexity. Thereby, high isolation and low power consumption can be achieved with the additional advantage of modularity.
    Type: Grant
