Abstract
A power multiplexer switch for alternatively coupling a supply or standby voltage line to an output voltage line comprises a first switching means for coupling an intermediate node to a common voltage line. Second switching means are responsive to the first switching means for coupling the supply voltage line to the output voltage line. Third and fourth series switching means connected to the intermediate node couple the standby voltage line to the output voltage line when a voltage on the standby voltage line exceeds that on the supply voltage line.
