Abstract
Devices and methods for switch body connections to achieve soft breakdown. In some embodiments, a method of implementing a radio-frequency switching device can include providing an assembly of source, gate, and drain implemented on an active region; providing a first body contact implemented at a first end of the assembly; and providing a second body contact implemented at a second end of the assembly, the second end distal from the first end along a width of the radio-frequency switching device.
