Abstract
The preferred embodiments of the present invention use low voltage transistors to support high voltage switching circuits by connecting low voltage circuits in a stacking configuration. High voltage switching signals are divided into a plurality of small amplitude switching signals before sending into transformers, filters or other circuits. The resulting circuits can support high voltage applications while achieving cost and performance advantages of low voltage circuits.
