CMOS output driver with p-channel substrate tracking for cold spare capability

A CMOS output driver circuit with p-channel substrate tracking provides an output driver to full power supply voltage. The circuit is especially useful as a redundant circuit where its power supply connection is connected to ground and the circuit is kept in unbiased storage until it is needed.
