Field: Basic communication processes (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  G | IPC G  H

Claim 18:
19. A system comprising:
a transmission gate comprising an input, and output, and a plurality of transistors, wherein the plurality of transistors facilitate controllable transmission of a voltage at the input to the output, wherein individual transistors of the plurality of transistors have a breakdown voltage; and
means for controlling voltages applied to individual transistors of the plurality of transistors such that voltages across terminals of individual transistors of the plurality of transistors do not exceed the breakdown voltage while a voltage at the input exceeds the breakdown voltage,
wherein, when the transmission gate is on, the means for controlling voltages is to apply a gate voltage to one or more transistors connected to the input and one or more transistors connected to the output based on a voltage at the input.
