Abstract
A circuit in accordance with the invention has a complementary pair of a MISFET and a COMFET with their drains connected together. This allows fabrication on a single substrate for greater reliability and reduced cost. The circuit can be used in a full or one half 'H-bridge' configuration for controlling current through a load such as a motor.
