Abstract

An electronic circuit includes an input configured to receive an input signal and an output configured to be coupled to load, an output transistor including a load path and a control node, the load path being connected between the output and a first supply node, a drive transistor including a load path and a control node, the load path being connected to the control node of the output transistor, a first electronic switch connected in series with the load path of the drive transistor, a biasing circuit including an internal impedance and connected between the control node of the drive transistor and the first supply node, and a control circuit configured to receive the input signal and to drive the first electronic switch based on the input signal.
