Abstract:

In an example, an integrated circuit includes a junction-gate field effect transistor (JFET), a current generator, a dynamic filter, and an output transistor. The JFET has a JFET gate, a JFET source, and a JFET drain, the JFET drain adapted to be coupled to a power supply. The current generator has a current generator input and current generator outputs, the current generator input coupled to the JFET source and a first of the current generator outputs coupled to the JFET gate. The dynamic filter has a dynamic filter input and a dynamic filter output, the dynamic filter input coupled to a second of the current generator outputs. The output transistor has an output transistor gate coupled to the dynamic filter output.
