Abstract

Disclosed is a switching circuit including an input terminal, a switching terminal, a grounding terminal, a bootstrap terminal, a high-side transistor connected between the input terminal and the switching terminal, a low-side transistor connected between the switching terminal and the grounding terminal, a bootstrap capacitor connected between the switching terminal and the bootstrap terminal, a bootstrap switch connected between a constant voltage line and the bootstrap terminal, and a driver circuit configured to turn on the bootstrap switch in a period of time in which the low-side transistor is on and to turn off the bootstrap switch in a period of time in which the low-side transistor is off. The bootstrap switch includes two P-channel metal oxide semiconductor transistors connected in anti-series with each other between the constant voltage line and the bootstrap terminal.
