Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has launched “TDS5C212MX” and “TDS5B212MX,” 2:1 multiplexer (Mux) / 1:2 demultiplexer (De‑Mux) switches that support next-generation high-speed interfaces such as PCIe® 6.0 [1] and USB4® Version 2.0 [2]. Volume shipments of the new products start today.

Toshiba: TDS5C212MX and TDS5B212MX, multiplexer/demultiplexer switches for high-speed differential signals such as PCIe® 6.0 and USB4® Ver.2, for PCs, servers and more.
As servers, industrial testers, robots, and PCs continue to evolve, demand is growing for reliable switching of ultra‑high‑speed, wide‑bandwidth differential signals—such as PCIe® 6.0 and USB4® Version 2.0—within increasingly limited board space. Toshiba’s new products meet this requirement with a proprietary SOI process (TarfSOI™) [3] that achieves an industry‑leading [4] -3‑dB bandwidth (differential) of 34GHz (typ.) for TDS5C212MX and 29GHz (typ.) for TDS5B212MX. These wide bandwidths significantly suppress signal waveform distortion and help to improve reliability in high-speed data transmission.
The new devices can be used as 2-input/1-output Mux switches or 1-input/2-output De-Mux switches in high-speed differential signal applications, such as PCIe® 6.0 and USB4® Version 2.0. They support sharing of a single high-speed interface among multiple devices and switching signal paths according to system requirements.
Both products feature pin layouts optimized for high-frequency characteristics. In particular, TDS5C212MX minimizes signal path length to reduce reflections and losses, improving high-speed signal integrity. They both support an operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, making them suitable for industrial applications.
Toshiba will continue to contribute to next‑generation systems by developing high‑performance, highly reliable analog switches that support the evolution of high‑speed interfaces.
