Abstract
Apparatus, methods and systems to produce a protection voltage are disclosed. The apparatus includes circuitry to deliver a first supply voltage to a plurality of circuits, where the first supply voltage has a first magnitude, circuitry to deliver a second supply voltage to a part of the plurality of circuits, where the second supply voltage has a second magnitude, and circuitry to deliver a protection voltage to the part of the plurality of circuits when the second supply voltage is LOW and the first supply voltage is HIGH. The protection voltage has a magnitude that is a fraction of the magnitude of the first supply voltage. The apparatus includes circuitry that causes the delivery of the second supply voltage to the part of the plurality of circuits when the second supply voltage is turned HIGH subsequent to the second supply voltage being LOW when the first supply voltage is HIGH.
