Abstract
A high density, low power, high performance information system, method and apparatus are described in which an integrated circuit apparatus includes a first integrated circuit link element () and a redundant integrated circuit link element () connected in parallel between first and second deflectable MEMS switches (--) which are connected in a signal path and controlled to deselect the first integrated circuit link element () and connect the redundant integrated circuit link element () in the signal path in response to a two-state control signal provided to the first and second deflectable MEMs switches which identifies the first integrated circuit link element as being defective.
