  • Non-blockings switch matrix
    Patent number: 10109441
    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus for implementing a non-blocking switch matrix. In one aspect, a switch matrix can include an arrangement of C-switches. Each of the C-switches can be configured to switch between two positions to couple between different channels. The C-switches can be arranged in the switch matrix as to provide non-blocking functionality such that each of the inputs of the switch matrix is routed to an output of the switch matrix in any combination of the configurations of the C-switches.
