Recycling and clamping reflected voltages in cascode gan hemt devices

Abstract

A power switch circuit includes an internal node; a first field-effect transistor including a first drain, a first gate and a first source; a second field-effect transistor including a second drain, a second gate and a second source, wherein the first drain is coupled to a voltage supply terminal, the first gate is coupled to the second source, the first source and the second drain are coupled to the internal node, and the second source is coupled to a ground; and a regulating circuit is coupled to the internal node, wherein the regulating circuit is configured to regulate a voltage value of the internal node after the power switch circuit is activated.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
