An output circuit includes a high-side transistor, a low-side transistor, a gate protection circuit, a level shift circuit, and a pre-driver circuit. The level shift circuit interrupts a current path from an output terminal to the level shift circuit after a predetermined time has passed since the high-side...http://www.google.fr/patents/US20080265972?utm_source=gb-gplus-shareBrevet US20080265972 - OUTPUT CIRCUIT AND MULTI-OUTPUT CIRCUIT
