ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
In a broadband signal switching matrix network having a cross-point matrix in FET technology whose switching elements, controlled by a holding memory cell, are each formed with a series circuit of a switching transistor and of an input transistor. Matrix output lines thereof are respectively connected to one terminal of the operating voltage source via a pre-charging transistor that is controlled by a pre-charging clock, that side of the series circuit connected opposite from the matrix output line being permanently connected to the other terminal of the operating voltage source (directly or via a transistor controlled by the output signal and individually associated to the matrix output line) in order to avoid sample clock lines that lead to the switching elements.

Description

, ' BACKGROUN~ OF ~n~ LEy___ION
~ oderndevelopments in telecommunications technology have lead to integrated services communications transmission and switching systems for narrow band and broadband communications services that have light waveguides in the region of the subscriber lines as a transmission medium. The light waveguides provide both narrow band communications services such as, in particular, 64 kbit/s digital telephony as well as broadband communications services such as, in particular, 140 Mbit/s picture telephone. As a result narrow band signal switching matrix networks and broadband signals switching matrix networks (preferably having shared control equipment) can also be provided side-by-side in the switching centers (see German Patent 24 21 002).
A known broadband signal switching matrix network (see, for example, European Patent Al 0 262 479) has a cross-point matrix in FET technology whose switching elements are each formed with a switching transistor that has its control electrode charged with a through-connect or inhibit signal and has its main electrode connected to the appertaining matrix output line. The switching elements each have a series transistor forming a series circuit with the switching transistor. This series transistor has its control electrode connected t ~ _he appertaining matrix input line and its main electrode connected opposite from the series circuit being connected via a sampling transistor to one terminal of an operating voltage source to whose other terminal the respective matrix output line is connected via a pre~

charging transistor. The pre-charging transistor and sampling transistor are respectively charged oppositely from one another at their control electrode with a switching matrix network selection clock that subdivides a bit through-connect time span into a pre-charging phase and into the actual through-connection phase. As a result the matrix output line, for an inhibited sampling transistor, is at least approximately charged in every preliminary phase to the potential at the other terminal of the operating voltage source.
This known broadband signal switching matrix network that can have sampling transistors individually associated to the switching elements or sampling transistors, which are individually associated to the matrix input line or matrix output line, requires separate clock lines that run through the cross-point matrix for selecting these sampling transistors. This requires a circuit surface space requirement and involves a corresponding capacitative load on the matrix output lines. In order to guarantee adequate protection against signal interference, clock distribution and couplings between matrix input lines and matrix output lines require adequately high signal amplitudes on the matrix output lines, this involving a relatively high power consumption.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
An object of the present invention is to provide a broadband signal switching matrix network having limited dissipated power given adequate prbtection against disruption in which such disadvantages are avoided.

` 1 330232 The present invention is directed to a broadband signal switching matrix network having a cro~s-point matrix ET technology whose inputs can each be provided with an input driver circuit, ~rhose outputs can each be provided with an output amplifier circuit, and each of whose switching elements controlled by a holding memory cell is respectively formed with a series circuit of a switching transistor whose control electrode is charged with a through-connect signal or inhibit signal and an input transistor that has its control electrode connected to the appertaining matrix input line. The series circuit has the main electrode of one transistor, that is connected opposite from the series circuit, connected to the appertaining matrix output line, -~ rdbr the matrix output line~q~ connected to a pre-charging potential source via a pre-charging circuit that has an unlocking input connected to the clock signal line of a pre-charging clock signal that defines the pre-charging phase of a bit through-connect time span that is subdivided into such a pre-charging phase and into the : ~.
remaining bit through-connection time span. As a result the matrix output line is charged to a pre-charging potential in every pre-charging phase. This broadband switching matrix network is inventively characterized in that the main electrode of the other transistor that is connected opposite from the series circuit is continuously connected to a terminal of the operating voltage source.
In addition to providing the advantage of avoiding additional clock lines and, potentially, of being able .

; ~ ~
-~

to co-utilize the operating voltage supply of the cross-point-associated holding memory cell already required for the feed of the switching element controlled by this holding memory cell, the present invention provides the further advantage that the output line can be operated with a very small signal boost of, for example, 1 V for an operating voltage of, for example, 5 V. This producing a corresponding reduction in the dissipated powers. At the same time, the possible reduction of signal boost on the matrix output line also produces a reduction of disturbances of the opexating voltage of the broadband signal switching matrix network that are caused by power peaks.
.
In a further development of the present invention, the maln electrode of the other transistor, that is connected opposite from the series circuit, can be connected to the one terminal of the operating voltage source via a transistor individually associated to the matrix output line that has its control electrode connected to the output of an output amplifier oircuit that is individually associated to the matrix output line. Given a corresponding change in signal status at the output of the output amplifier circuit, the transistor individually associated to the matrix output line is thereby inhibited, so that a further charge reversal of the output line is avoided and the signal boost is thus limited.
In a further development of the present invention, the transistor series circuit of each and every switching element can have its input transistor connected to the "' matrix output line.
Alternatively thereto, however, it is possible that, in a further development of the present invention, the transistor series circuit of each and every switching element has its switching transistor connected to the matrix output line, this avoiding a capacitative loading of the matrix output line by the channel capacitance of the series transistors of switching elements that are not through-connected.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The features of the present invention which are believed to be novel, are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. The invention, together with further objects and advantages, may best be understood by reference to the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in the ; several Figures in which like reference numerals identify like elements, and in which~
Figure 1 is a schematic of a broadband switching matrix network;
~; Figures 2-6 are circuit schematics of circuit-oriented details of the present invention; and -~
Figure 7 is a graph depicting signal statuses.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
Figure 1 schematically depicts a broadband signal switching matrix network in a scope required for an understanding of the present invention. Input driver j~
circuits El...Ej... En are provided at the input el...ej...en thereof that connect to column lines sl...sj...sn of a cross-point matrix and the outputs 33023~

row al...ai...am thereof reached by ~r~ lines zl...zi...zm of the cross-point matrix are provided with output amplifier circuits Al...Ai...Am.
The cross-point matrix has cross-point~
KPll...KPij...KPmn whose switching element (as is indicated in greater detail i~ the case of the cross-point KPij for the switching element Kij thereof) can be respectively driven by a cross-point associated holding memory cell Hij (at the cross-point KPij) whose output s connects to the control input of the respective switching element (Kij at the cross-point KPij).
According to Figure 1, the holding memory cells...Hij...are driven in two coordinates by two selection decoders, namely, a row decoder DX and a column decoder DY via corresponding selection lines xl...xi...xm: yl...yj...yn.
As may be seen from Figure 1, the two selection decoders DX, DY may thereby be chargeable, proceeding from input registers ~ X, ~ Y, with a respective cross-point row address or, respectively, cross-point column address shared by a matrix line (row or column) of cross-points. In response thereto they respectively output a "1" selection signal to the selection line corresponding to the respective cross-point line address.
The coincidence of a row selection signal "1" and of a column selection signal "1" at the intersection of the appertaining matrix row with the appertaining matrix column during the set-up of a corresponding call then effects an activation of the holding memory cell situated there, for example, the memory cell Hij. This has the :

~ 20365-2~54 result that the swltchlng element controlled by the apper-talnlng holding memory cell (Hl~) becomes conductlve, the .
swltchlng element Kl~ in the example.
So that the swltchlng element Kl~ under conslderatlon ln the example ls again inhibited for a clear down of the appertalnlng call, the selectlon decoder DX ls agaln charged wlth the appertalnlng row address proceedlng from the lnput reglster Reg X, so that the row decoder DX agaln outputs a row selectlon signal "1" on its output llne xl. Simultaneously, -~
the column decoder DY, proceedlng from lts lnput reglster Reg Y, ls charged, for example, wlth a dummy address or wlth the address of a column of unconnected cross-polnts, so that lt ~ ~`
outputs a column selectlon slgnal "0" on its output llne y~
The colncldence of row selectlon slgnal "1" and column selec-tlon slgnal "0" then effects the resettlng of the holdlng memory cell Hl~, wlth the result that the swltchlng element Ki~
controlled by it is lnhlblted.
The holdlng memory cells...Hl~... can be fashloned ln a known manner. Thus, the holding memory cells (as known, for example, by European patent A 0 238 834 and also sketched ln Figures 5 and 6) can be formed wlth an n-channel transistor Tnh and two cross-coupled inverter circuits (CMOS inverter circuits ~ I ~
Tp' Tn'; Tp'', Tn'' in Figure 5~ n-MOS inverter circuits Tnl', Tnl'~ Tnl'', Tn'' ln Flgure 6), whereby one lnverter circuit has its lnput slde connected to the appertainlng decoder output y~ of the one selectlon decoder vla the n-channel translstor Tnh that ln turn has lts control electrode charged with the output slgnal of the appertaining decoder output xl of the other selection ~ ~ .

decoder. One inverter circuit has its output side connected to the control input s of the appertaining switching element.
How the switching elements~..Kij...can be realized in circuit-oriented terms is illustrated in Figures 2, 3 and 4; the switching elements...Kij...are each formed with a series circuit of a switching transistor Tk that has its control electrode charged with a through-connect signal or inhibit signal proceeding from the holding memory cell and of an input transistor Te that has its control electrode connected to the appertaining matrix input line sj. The series circuit has the main electrode of the one transistor Tk (in Figure 3 and Figure 4) or Te (in Figure 2), that is connected opposite from the series circuit, connected to the àppertaining matrix output line zi.
¦ The matrix output line zi is thcrcby connected via a pre-charging circuit to a pre-charging potential ssurce proceeding from which the matrix output line zi can be charged to a pre-charging potential lying between the two operating potentials or to one of the two operating potentials itself. A pre-charging potential source for a pre-charging potential lying between the two operating potentials can, in particular, be formed in a , ~
fundamentally known manner (see for example, European Patent A O 249 837) with a feedback CMOS inverter via ~ ~
which the matrix output line, in a pre-charging phase of -a bit through-connect time span, is at least approximately charged to the potential corresponding to the threshold of the inverter. By contrast thereto, the ~

g - ,;' '' matrlx output llne zl ln the e~emplary embodlments shown ln Flgures 2-4 ls connected to one termlnal (Uss in Figure 27 UDD
ln Flgure 3, Figure 4) of the operating voltage source UDD-Uss vla a pre-charglng clrcuit that, as may also be seen from Flgures 2-4, is formed in a known fashion (see for example, European Patent A 0 262 479) with a pre-charging translstor Tipc that has lts control electrode connected to a pre-charglng clock llne Tpc.

The maln electrode of the other translstor Te (ln . ., , ~ ~ ~
Flgure 3 and Flgure 4) or Tk (in Figure 2) that is connected opposite from the series clrcuit is continuously - i.e. not clock-controlled - conneated to the other termlnal Uss, ground (in Flgure 3 and Flgure 4) or UDD (in Flgure 2) of the opera-tlng voltage source, to whlch end, glven dlrect connectlon accordlng to Figure 2 and Figure 3, the correspondlng operatlng voltage terminal (Uss, ground or, UDD ln Flgure 5 and Flgure 6) of the cross-polnt-associated holdlng memory cell Hl~ (in . -Flgure 1, Figure 5 and Flgure 6) can be utlllzed. As a result ~
- , . -the operatlng voltage supply o~ the cross-polnt-assoclated holdlng memory cell that ls already requlred can be co-utillzed for feedlng the swltchlng element controlled by thls holdlng memory cell. In the exemplary embodiment of Figure 4, the maln electrode of the other translstor (Te), that ls connectad oppo-slte from the serles clrcuit, ls connected to the other terml-nal Uss of the operatlng voltage source vla a translstor Tal lndlvldually assoclated to the matrlx output llne that has lts control electrode connected to the output al of an output ampllfier clrcult Al that ls lndlvldually assoclated to the matrlx output line. Glven a corresponding change of slgnal 30 status at the output ai of the output ampllfler circult Al, the transistor Tai indlvldually assoclated to the matrlx outpu~

As may be seen from Flgure 2, the translstor serles circuit Tk-Te of every swltchlng element Kl~ can have lts lnput transls~or Te connected to the matrlx output llne zl. Then, as seen proceedlng from the matrlx output llne zl, the lnput tran~

Preferably, n-channel translstors will be utllized as the clrcuit transistors. Accordingly, the transistors in the exemplary embodiments of Figures 2 and 4 are all of the n-channel type, whereas the transistors (Te, Tk) provided in the switching element...Ki~... in the exemplary embodiment of Flgure 3 are of the n-channel type and the pre-charglng tran- `

Rather, it retains the pre-charging potential condition (Uss in the exemplary embodiment of Figure 2; U~D in the exemplary embodiments of Figures 3 and 4) under the condition that no other cross-point connected to this matrix output line (row line) zi is situated in the through-connect condition.
