Abstract: Various implementations described herein are directed to a device having an input-output pad configured to receive and supply an input-output pad voltage. The device may include gate tracking circuitry that receives a first voltage, receives a second voltage different than the first voltage, receives node voltages and provides a first tracking voltage and a second tracking voltage based on the first voltage, the second voltage and the node voltages. The device may include output circuitry that receives the first tracking voltage and the second tracking voltage from the gate tracking circuitry and provides the input-output pad voltage to the input-output pad based on the first tracking voltage and the second tracking voltage.

Abstract: In a particular implementation, an apparatus to control clamping devices includes a detection circuitry, a clamping device, inverter circuitry, and first and second control circuitry. In response to a first voltage corresponding to a gate terminal of the clamping device, the first control circuitry is configured to generate a second voltage to set the first voltage below a first voltage threshold. Also, in response to the second voltage, the second control circuitry is configured to generate a third voltage to set a voltage of the detection circuitry below a second voltage threshold.
