Abstract

See full text

In accordance with an embodiment, a method of operating a switching transistor includes turning-off the switching transistor by transferring charge from a gate-drain capacitance of the switching transistor to a charge storage device, and turning-on the switching transistor by transferring charge from the charge storage device to a gate of the switching transistor. Turning off the switching transistor includes hard-switching and turning-on the switching transistor includes soft-switching.
