The described embodiments of the present invention provide a substrate slew circuit that eliminates electron injection. The slew circuit comprises a semiconductor substrate, first and second transistors and a control circuit. One of a source/drain of the source/drain of the first transistor is connected to a reference voltage. One of a source/drain of the second transistor is connected to a gate of the first transistor, the other of the source/drain of the second transistor is coupled to receive a first voltage signal from a substrate pump. The control circuit is connected to the gate of the second transistor for controlling the passage of current from the other of the source/drain of the second transistor to the one of a source/drain of the second transistor.
