<p>An apparatus for switching microwave signals includes a plurality of input lines (64), a plurality of output lines (66); and a plurality of thyristors (T). Each thyristor has a lower conducting surface that is electrically connected to one of the input lines and an upper conducting surface that is electrically connected to one of the output lines. A selected thyristor transmits a microwave signal between a selected input line and a selected output line in an ON state and blocks the microwave signal between the selected input line and the selected output line in an OFF state.</p> |
