Abstract

See full text

A scalable non-blocking switching network (SN) having switches and intermediate (stages of) conductors that are used to connect substantially a first plurality of conductors, through a first set of switches, to a second plurality sets of conductors. The conductors in each set of the second plurality of conductors substantially connect, through a second set of switches, to a third plurality of sets of conductors. Each conductor of a set of the third plurality sets of conductors either connects, physically, to one pin in each of a plurality of functional blocks or, through a third set of switches, to a subsequent fourth set of conductors. The SN is scalable for larger sets of conductors by adding additional sets of intermediate conductors in a hierarchically fashion.
