发明名称 CONFIGURABLE MULTI-GATE SWITCH CIRCUITRY
摘要 Integrated circuits with configurable multi-gate switch circuitry are provided. The switch circuitry may include switch control circuitry and an array of multi-gate switches. Each multi-gate switch may have first and second terminals, first and second gates, and a metal bridge. The metal bridge is attached to the first terminal. The metal bridge may extend over the gates and may hover above the second terminal in the off state. The metal bridge may have a tip that bends down to physically contact the second terminal in the on state. Switch control circuitry may provide row and column control signals to load desired switch states into the switch array. The switch array may be partitioned into groups of switches that form multiplexers. The multiplexers may be used in programmable circuits such as programmable logic device circuits.
