CMOS OUTPUT DRIVER WITH P-CHANNEL SUBSTRATE TRACKING FOR COLD SPARE CAPABILITY

A CMOS output driver circuit (10) with p-channel substrate tracking provides an output driver to full power supply voltage (VDD). The circuit (10) is especially useful as a redundant circuit where its power supply connection (VDD) is connected to ground (VSS) and the circuit (10) is kept in unbiased...

Summary:A CMOS output driver circuit (10) with p-channel substrate tracking provides an output driver to full power supply voltage (VDD). The circuit (10) is especially useful as a redundant circuit where its power supply connection (VDD) is connected to ground (VSS) and the circuit (10) is kept in unbiased storage until it is needed. Un circuit d'attaque (10) de sortie de transistor CMOS avec un système de suivi de substrat à canal P constitue un circuit d'attaque de sortie à une tension d'alimentation maximale (VDD). Ce circuit (10) est particulièrement utile comme circuit redondant lorsque sa connexion d'alimentation électrique (VDD) est reliée à la terre (VSS) et qu'il (10) est conservé dans un état non polarisé jusqu'à son utilisation.
