Note:
Stresses greater than those listed under MAXIMUM RATINGS may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect reliability.

Pericom Semiconductor's PI3L series of switch circuits are produced using the Company's advanced sub-micron CMOS technology, achieving industry leading performance. The PI3L500 is a 16- to 8- Channel multiplexer/demultiplexer LAN Switch with Hi-Z outputs. Industry leading dvantages include a propagation delay of less than 250ps, resulting from its low channel resistance and I/O  apacitance. The PI3L500 device multiplexes differential outputs from a Gigabit Ethernet transceiver (PHY) device to one of two corresponding B1 or B2 outputs. The switch is bidirectional and offers little or no attenuation of the high-speed signals at the outputs. It is designed for low bit-to-bit skew, high channel-to-channel noise isolation and is compatible with various standards, such as 10/100/1000 Base-T (Ethernet).
Generally, this PI3L500 part can be used to replace mechanical relays in low-voltage LAN applications that interface a physical layer over CAT 5 or CAT 6 unshielded twisted pair cable through an isolation transformer.
