Abstract

A radio frequency (RF) switch circuit is provided. The switch includes a branch configured and arranged to transfer an RF signal coupled at an input node to an output node when a control signal is at a first logic value. A first transistor in the branch includes a first current electrode coupled at the input node and a second current electrode coupled to an intermediate node. The first transistor is formed in a first isolation well coupled to a bias voltage supply terminal. A second transistor in the branch includes a first current electrode coupled to the second current electrode of the first transistor at the intermediate node and a second current electrode coupled at the output node. The second transistor is formed in a second isolation well coupled to the bias voltage supply terminal. A third transistor includes a first current electrode coupled at the first intermediate node and a second current electrode coupled at a first supply terminal.
