Abstract
A P-CHANNEL MOSFET is configured as a high side switch by arranging a capacitor between the P-CHANNEL MOSFET gate and a pair of push/pull transistors in a control circuit. A pull-up resistor is connected with the high side supply, one leg of the capacitor and with the gate of the P-CHANNEL MOSFET. In a two-phase electrical drive circuit, a pair of P-CHANNEL MOSFETS is connected with the high side supply and a pair of N-CHANNEL MOSFETS is connected with the low side supply.
