Abstract:
Embodiments of a circuit, which includes a device and a switch, which is electrically coupled to the device, to control power applied to the device, are described. This switch includes a control terminal, which controls the switch, and two other terminals, which can receive power to be applied to the device. Moreover, the circuit is configured to apply a voltage to the control terminal to ensure the switch remains open when a supply voltage is applied to one of the two other terminals while powering-up the circuit, thereby preventing spurious application of the supply voltage to the device.
