Abstract
A circuit. In some embodiments, the circuit includes: a first pair of transistors, configured as a cross-coupled pair of transistors; a second pair of transistors, configured as another cross-coupled pair of transistors; and a first series combination of one or more voltage clamping transistors. A first transistor of the first pair of transistors may have a current-carrying terminal electrically coupled to a first end terminal of the first series combination of one or more voltage clamping transistors, and a first transistor of the second pair of transistors may have a first current-carrying terminal electrically coupled to a second end terminal of the first series combination of one or more voltage clamping transistors.
