Abstract

A circuit is provided with a selectively diode-connected head switch transistor. During a light-sleep mode, the head switch transistor is diode connected so that a power supply voltage passing through the diode-connected head switch transistor is reduced by a transistor threshold voltage drop. During an active mode, the diode connection is opened so that the head switch transistor passes a power supply voltage with virtually no voltage drop.
