A switching device has an input node, an output node, and a control node. The device includes: a substrate having a first side and a second side with a ground plane on the first side of the substrate and a mesa on the second side of the substrate. The mesa is made of a normally-conductive semiconductor material, and an isolation region substantially surrounds the mesa. A field effect transistor (FET) is on the mesa. The FET has an input terminal connected to the input node, an output terminal connected to the output node, and a gate. A capacitor is connected in series between the output terminal of the FET and the gate, and a resistor is connected in series between the control node and the gate. A gate electrode is directly connected to the gate. The gate electrode is disposed substantially entirely on the mesa.
