A switch includes first and second switch terminals, at least one output MOS transistor for selectively connecting the first and second switch terminals, and a driving current source for driving the at least one output MOS transistor. The switch may also include a current limiter for limiting the driving of the at least one output MOS transistor by the driving current source to establish a current limit. Furthermore, a controller may be included for the current limiter for controlling the current limit, such as by causing the current limiter to decrease the current limit based upon an increase in temperature of the integrated circuit or at periodic intervals to control rise and fall times of the at least one output MOS transistor.
