Abstract
A semiconductor switch according to an embodiment of the invention includes resistive members connected with a source and a drain witch are n-type diffusion layers formed in a P-well of an n-type MOSFET. When a gate of the n-type MOFET is turned off, a positive voltage is applied to a node between the resistive members for a reverse bias at a PN junction between the source and the drain, and the well. When the gate is turned on, the node between the resistive members is set to 0 V.
