Abstract

A radio frequency (RF) switch which comprises an RF domain section having a plurality of RF switching elements. A DC domain section is provided having circuitry configured for controlling the RF switching elements in response to one or more control signals. A resistive load is provided between the RF domain section and the DC domain section. A bypass circuit is configured for selectively bypassing at least a portion of the resistive load.
