We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Analogue switch",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Little resistance to analogue switch upgrades from
Vishay Siliconix, which we summarised at the time by saying "The DG469 and DG470 offer a very low 3.6ohm typical and 4.2ohm maximum on-resistance with typical flatness of 0.4ohm".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Eight by six video switch matrix for space saving from
Fairchild Semiconductor: "The FMS6502 is an 8-input, 6-output video switch matrix for use in consumer and industrial video applications such as in-car entertainment systems, HDTVs and flat-panel displays".
In October 2006, we covered the news from Fairchild Semiconductor
- take a look at Power demand drive Fairchild ahead
which says: "Fairchild Semiconductor has announced results for the third quarter ended 1st October 2006".
Take a look also at the news release from California Micro Devices, Integrated passive devices protect HDMI,
as well as Chip scale switches suit handset duties from Pericom Semiconductor Corp,
and Fairchild surprises with Q1 growth from Fairchild Semiconductor.
