Abstract
A cascode switch circuit includes a first transistor, a second transistor, and a protector. A first transistor receives a signal from a first terminal through a first end and transfers the signal to a second end in response to a first control signal. A second transistor delivers the signal that the first transistor transfers to a second terminal in response to a second control signal. A protector is connected between a gate of the first transistor and the second terminal. The first control signal is provided to allow the first transistor to operate in a normally-on state. The second control signal is provided to allow the second transistor to operate in a normally-off state.
