Abstract:
Systems, methods, and apparatus for biasing a high speed and high voltage driver using only low voltage transistors are described. The apparatus and method are adapted to control biasing voltages to the low voltage transistors such as not to exceed operating voltages of the low voltage transistors while allowing for DC to high speed operation of the driver at high voltage. A stackable and modular architecture of the driver and biasing stages is provided which can grow with a higher voltage requirement of the driver. Capacitive voltage division is used for high speed bias voltage regulation during transient phases of the driver, and resistive voltage division is used to provide bias voltage at steady state. A simpler open-drain configuration is also presented which can be used in pull-up or pull-down modes.

Claim (Index 14):
The HSHV open drain driver of  claim 10 , wherein:\n the biasing circuit further comprises a plurality of series connected capacitors configured as a capacitive voltage divider between the source node of the first transistor of the main stack and the output node coupled to the drain of the Nth transistor of the main stack, and capacitive nodes of the capacitive voltage divider connecting two consecutive capacitors of the plurality of series connected capacitors are coupled to respective gate nodes of the transistors of the main stack.
