Abstract: A transmission gate circuit for use, for example, as a switching element of an analog multiplexer, includes an input configured to receive an input signal, an output and a control input configured to receive a switch control signal. A transmission gate switch is coupled between the input and the output. A level shifting circuit generates a level shifted switch control signal from the switch control signal, and applies that level shifted switch control signal to a control terminal of the transmission gate switch. The control terminal of the transmission gate switch can instead receive the switch control signal in situations where a voltage of the input signal is suitably high to support linear operation of the transmission gate switch.
