PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a configurable multi-gate switch circuitry.SOLUTION: Integrated circuits with configurable multi-gate switch circuitry are provided. The switch circuitry includes switch control circuitry and an array of multi-gate switches. Each multi-gate switch has first and second terminals, first and second gates, and a metal bridge. The metal bridge is attached to the first terminal. The metal bridge extends over the gates and hovers above the second terminal in an off state. The metal bridge has a tip that bends down to physically contact the second terminal in an on state. The switch control circuitry provides row and column control signals to load desired switch states into the switch array. The switch array is partitioned into groups of switches that form multiplexers. The multiplexers are used in programmable circuits such as programmable logic device circuits. |
