Digital Crosspoint Switches

Analog Devices’ X-stream™ family of digital switches includes high speed crosspoint and 2:1 mux/demux switches. These switches are ideal for WDM, enterprise, and metro networking systems commonly employed by Internet service providers, data centers, telecom central offices, and storage area networks. These switches are also suited for broadcast video applications.

Level Translators

ADI’s level translators offer the most flexible level translation solutions in the industry. The ADG3241 series translators allow direct 3.3 V to 1.8 V translation by means of the innovative SEL pin function while allowing bidirectional data transfer. The ADG3231 series allows wide range 1.65 V to 3.6 V translation and the ADG3308 series allows the industry's widest 1.2 V to 5.5 V up or down translation while permitting bidirectional data transfer.

Selector Muxes and DeMuxes

Analog Devices offers high performance multiplexer products for high data rate applications. Serializer and deserializer muxes use both rising and falling edges of the clock to serialize the data from parallel inputs to serial output while demuxes deserialize the data from its serial input to parallel outputs. Furthermore, selector muxes route the differential inputs to either one or more of the desired outputs upon the assertion of the appropriately selected port. These products can be used in various applications including gigabit multimedia serial link (GMSL), high data rate Ethernet, fiber communication, signal routing, and broadband test and measurement.

Track and Hold Data

Track and hold amplifiers are used to expand the bandwidth and/or high-frequency linearity of high-speed A/D conversion and signal acquisition systems. Track and Hold Amplifiers can be used in various applications including RF ATE Applications, Digital Sampling Oscilloscopes, RF Demodulation Systems, Digital Receiver Systems, High Speed Peak Detectors, Software Defined Radio, Radar, ECM & ELINT Systems and High Speed DAC De-Glitching.
