Abstract
A switch circuit includes first and second transistor stacks coupled in parallel between first and second ports. The first transistor stack includes a first plurality of transistors coupled in series between the first and second ports to provide a first variably-conductive path between the first and second ports. Each transistor of the first plurality of transistors has a gate terminal coupled to a first control terminal. The second transistor stack includes a second plurality of transistors coupled in series between the first and second ports to provide a second variably-conductive path between the first and second ports. Each transistor of the second plurality of transistors has a gate terminal coupled to a second control terminal. When implemented in a transceiver, first and second drivers are configured to simultaneously configure the first and second variably-conductive paths in a low-impedance state.
