  • Multiple voltage supply switch
    Patent number: 6826096
    Abstract: A multiple voltage supply switch is disclosed. The multiple voltage supply switch includes a plurality of switching device pairs. Each switching device pair is connectable between an associated one of a plurality of voltage supplies and an output of the switch. Each switching device pair includes a first switching device connected to the associated one of the plurality of voltage supplies and a second switching device connected in series between the first switching device and the output of the switch. Both the first and second switching devices are activated to connect the associated one of the voltage supplies to the output of the switch and at least one of the first or the second switching devices of each of the other switching device pairs are inactivated to disconnect the voltage supply associated with the other switching device pairs from the output of the switch.
    Type: Grant
