Abstract :
A selfrouting crossbar switch with multiple channels per input and output ports has been designed in 2 mu m CMOS. It has a pipelined architecture which permits high speed path setup and arbitration. This crossbar is the building block for an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switch fabric using multiple channel delta networks with shared output buffers.
