Abstract
Various examples are directed to crosspoint switches and methods of use thereof. An example cross point switch comprises a first row buffer, a second row buffer, a first column buffer, and a second column buffer. The crosspoint switch may also comprise a first switch that, when closed, electrically couples the second row buffer to the first column buffer, and a correction controller. The correction controller may be configured to send a first correction signal to the first row buffer; send a second correction signal to the second row buffer; receive an indication that the first switch is closed; send a third correction signal to the first column buffer; and send a fourth correction signal to the second column buffer.
