Bus switch products from Cutter Electronics
Potato Semiconductor, represented by Cutter Electronics , have introduced the Bus switch products. This product line has merged power saving and high bandwidth in one.
GHz TTL CMOS logic and high speed CMOS clock buffer are available from Potato Semiconductor. Now, Potato Semiconductor have integrated their low noise and high frequency technology into Bus switch products.
The maximum data transfer rate can be as high as 3.5Gbps. More importantly, those bus switch products consume low power (0.1uA type).
Potato Semiconductor are focused on high speed and power saving. All of the Potato Chips are designed without current sources.
Potato Semiconductor’s chips have no static current. The 0.1uA is the CMOS leakage current only. The Bus switch is an electronic switch device without driving capability. It is not supposed to drain any electronics current.
Potato Semiconductor have applied their technology to 74-series logic ICs. The 74-series ICs occupy an important role in the semiconductor industry.
These types have been widely used in appliances, computers and many other electric and electronic products for over 40 years but have inherent noise problems.
Potato Semiconductor say that the noise generated from high frequency operating environments can be effectively eliminated and the performance of ICs can be enhanced.
After careful and thorough research, Richard Kao, the CEO of Potato Semiconductor, finally determined what he believed to be the root cause of noise in these types of logic circuits and as a result decided to abandon primitive IC design algorithms, deciding instead to develop a completely new theory, ushering in a new IC design algorithm.
In TTL/CMOS technology, high frequency amounts to high noise levels. By eliminating noise, an IC's performance can reach the upper limit of its manufacturing process.
Using 0,35m CMOS as an example, the operating frequency of ICs based on old design algorithms is about 150MHz, while Potato Semiconductor's patented technology delivers devices that perform at speeds greater than 1GHz, which is the upper limit of the 0,35m CMOS process.
