A high-side switch control circuit is provided. The high-side switch control circuit includes an on/off transistor, a bias resistor, a zener diode, a level-shifting transistor, and a current source. The on/off transistor operates as a switch. The bias resistor is coupled to turn off the on/off transistor. The zener diode is coupled to clamp the maximum voltage of the on/off transistor. The level-shifting transistor is coupled to turn on the on/off transistor. The current source is coupled to the level-shifting transistor. The current source limits the maximum current of the level-shifting transistor.
