<p>A circuit for assuring the supply of voltage to an electronic circuit can be switched to an auxiliary voltage source via a series-connected, self-conducting field-effect transistor when the supply source fails. The circuit, which is realized with very little circuitry, has a voltage divider connected across the load; a tap on the voltage divider is connected to the gate electrode of the transistor. The invention is useful, for example, for protecting data in C-MOS memories of microprocessors.</p> |
