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

Claim 11:
12. 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
control circuitry to:
apply a voltage to the input such that a voltage difference between the input and the output is greater than the breakdown voltage; and
control 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,
wherein, when the transmission gate is off, the control circuitry is to apply a gate voltage to one or more transistors connected to the input based on a voltage at the input and apply a gate voltage to one or more transistors connected to the output based on a voltage at the output.
