A method and apparatus for transitioning between power supply levels. In one form, the present invention uses a circuit (22) in a data processing system (10) to smoothly and gradually transition a Power Output signal from a first power supply level to a second power supply level during operation. This transition from a first power supply level to a second power supply level must be smooth and gradual so that a circuit, such as oscillator circuit (12), which is receiving its power from Power Output, may continue to function properly during the transition. A Control signal, which can change back and forth between a first logic level and a second logic level, is used to select which power supply level will be provided as the Power Output.
