    Abstract: A circuit includes a first power supply node at a first power supply voltage; a gated-node; and a first control device coupled between the first power supply node and the gated-node. The first control device is configured to pass the first power supply voltage to the gated-node or to disconnect the gated-node from the first power supply voltage. A second control device is coupled between the first power supply node and the gated-node. The second control device is configured to pass a gated-voltage to the gated-node or disconnect the gated-node from the gated-voltage. A voltage-drop device is coupled between the first power supply node and the gated-node, wherein the voltage-drop device is serially connected with the second control device. A negative-feedback current source is connected in parallel with the voltage-drop device. The negative-feedback current source is configured to provide a current tracking a variation of the gated-voltage at the gated-node.
