Integrated circuit with closely coupled high voltage output and offline transistor pair

摘要

An integrated circuit fabricated in a single silicon substrate includes a high-voltage output transistor having source and drain regions separated by a channel region, and a gate disposed over the channel region. Also included is an offline transistor having source and drain regions separated by a channel region and a gate disposed over the channel region of the offline transistor. A drain electrode is commonly coupled to the drain region of the high-voltage output transistor and to the drain region of the offline transistor.
