Abstract
A transistor switch comprises a first field-effect transistor, a second field-effect transistor, a clamping circuit and a coupling circuit. The first field-effect transistor is controlled by a first voltage source to be turned on during a transmission mode. The second field-effect transistor, which is controlled by a second voltage source to be turned off during the transmission mode, has one current carrying terminal connected to the first field-effect transistor. The clamping circuit is connected between a gate of the second field-effect transistor and the second voltage source. The coupling circuit is connected between the gate and one current carrying terminal of the second field-effect transistor.
