Abstract: One embodiment includes a power system. The system includes a power switch device that is activated to provide an output voltage to a load in response to an input voltage. The power switch device includes a control terminal and a bulk connection. The system also includes a reverse voltage control circuit configured to passively couple the input voltage to one of the control terminal and the bulk connection in response to a reverse voltage condition in which an amplitude of the input voltage becomes negative. The system further includes an output shutoff circuit configured to passively couple the output voltage to a neutral-voltage rail during the reverse voltage condition.

Abstract: An energy storage element control circuit includes a charge transistor having a first node adapted to be coupled to an output node of the energy storage element control circuit and a second node adapted to be coupled to a terminal of an energy storage element. The energy storage control circuit also includes a boot capacitor having a first node and a second node. The energy storage element further includes a comparator that includes a first input node coupled to the first node of the charge transistor and a second input node adapted to be coupled to the terminal of the energy storage element. The comparator also includes an output node.
