Switching Circuit and Method

摘要

A switching circuit (100, 200) for switching a voltage at an output node (120), comprises a first switch element (T1) coupled between a first supply node (110) and the output node (120), the first supply node (110) being at a first supply voltage (VDD), and a second switch element (T2) coupled between a second supply node (130) and the output node (120), the second supply node (130) being at a second supply voltage (Vss)- A switch controller (140) is arranged to, dependent on an input signal (VIN), switch the switching circuit (100, 200) between a first state, in which the first switch element (T1) is in a conducting state and the second switch element (T2) is in a non-conducting state, and a second state, in which the first switch element (T1) is in a non-conducting state and the second switch element (T2) is in a conducting state, through an intermediate state in which both the first switch element (T1) and the second switch element (T2) are in the non-conducting state.
