Abstract
Embodiments provide a switching device including a field-effect transistor (FET) having a source terminal, a drain terminal, a gate terminal, and a body terminal. The FET may be switchable between an on state, in which the FET passes a transmission signal between the source terminal and the drain terminal, and an off state, in which the FET prevents a transmission signal from passing between the source terminal and the drain terminal. The FET may receive a control signal at the gate terminal to switch the FET between the on state and the off state. The switching device may further include one or more forward diodes coupled between the gate terminal and the body terminal to bias the body terminal during the on state, and one or more reverse diodes coupled between the gate terminal and the body terminal to bias the body terminal during the off state.
