A circuit includes a high-side switch, a low-side switch, a diode, a transformer having a primary winding and a secondary windowing, and an input connected to a first terminal of the primary winding. The high-side switch has a source, a gate connected to a drive source and a drain connected to a second terminal of the primary winding. The low-side switch has a source connected to ground, a gate connected to a drive source and a drain connected to the source of the high-side switch. The diode is connected between the gate of the high-side switch and the first terminal of the primary winding. The diode forms a current loop with the primary winding and the high-side switch to circulate current when low side switch is off until the high side switch turns off.
