ABSTRACT:
A switch is provided that includes three stages. The first stages has a plurality of switch circuits. The second stage has a plurality of switch circuits equal to N, where N is any integer other than a power of 2 and where the switch circuits can be logically configured into a logical configuration of a power of 2. The third stages includes a plurality of switch circuits.
