Abstract

A circuit includes a first transistor having a first control input and first and second current terminals, and a second transistor having a second control input and third and fourth current terminals. A third transistor has a third control input and fifth and sixth current terminals, the fifth current terminal coupled to the first current terminal at a first supply voltage node. A fourth transistor has a fourth control input and seventh and eighth current terminals, the seventh current terminal coupled to the second and sixth current terminals. A pulse generator has a pulse generator input and a first pulse generator output, the pulse generator input configured to receive a switch control signal, and the first pulse generator output coupled to the first control input. The third control input is configured to receive either the switch control signal or a logical inverse of the switch control signal.
