ABSTRACT:
A circuit for connecting a first circuit node to either a second or a third circuit node relative to the voltage potential on the third circuit node includes two bipolar transistors connected in series. The collectors of both transistors are connected to the first circuit node. The emitter of the first transistor is connected to the second circuit node and the emitter of the second transistor is connected to the third circuit node. Means are provided for maintaining the base of the second transistor at a constant, preset bias voltage.
