Abstract
Disclosed is circuitry for operating a switch which sees high voltage swings across its source, gate, drain, and bulk terminals. The circuitry generates one or more bias voltages in proportion to an input voltage swing. The one or more bias voltages may be used to bias the gate and bulk terminals to provide reliable and improved turn OFF performance in the switch.
