Abstract
A transistor is coupled between a first voltage input and a voltage output in a first current path. First circuitry is coupled to a second voltage input, a control terminal of the transistor, and the voltage output. Second circuitry is coupled between the control terminal and ground in a second current path and between the control terminal and ground in a third current path parallel to the second current path. The second current path includes the control terminal, first and second terminals of the second circuitry, and ground. The third current path includes the control terminal, a second and the third terminal of the second circuitry, and ground. Third circuitry is coupled between the control terminal and the voltage output in a fourth current path. The fourth current path includes the control terminal, first and second terminals of the third circuitry, and the voltage output.
