High-speed multiplexers are used to switch between multiple sources in applications such as projectors, monitors and routers.

Texas Instruments has released three high-speed video multiplexers, combining wide bandwidth, high slew rate, fast switching time and low switching glitch to optimise performance in professional video applications High-speed multiplexers are used to switch between multiple sources in applications such as projectors, monitors and routers

Beyond video, the device can also be used in other high-speed signal multiplexing applications.

The devices allow the multiplexing of large amounts of data, such as high-resolution professional video signals, at higher speeds than previous generations.

The OPA875 single-channel and OPA3875 three channel 2:1 multiplexers feature a small signal bandwidth of 700MHz with a slew rate of 3100V/us, which supports a large signal bandwidth of 425MHz at 4Vpp.

The OPA4872 single-channel 4:1 multiplexer offers a slew rate of 2300V/us for a bandwidth of 500MHz at 2Vpp.

The devices use a low-glitch switching technique to enable fast and seamless multiplexing of high-speed signals.
