Dear all experts,
I am designing a power switch that can switch between VDDA_IN(direct power supply, 1.8V-3.3V) and VBAT(battery power, 1.8V-3.3V).
My problem is that the switch of VBAT cannot completely turn off if VDDA_IN is higher than VBAT (as below picture).

Could you please advise me some ideas?

You are posting in the IC design section. This implies that transistor bulk nodes must be considered, please show a complete schematic. If P2 bulk is isolated or at highest positive potential, it's sufficient to raise P2 gate voltage to 3.3 V to avoid back current to VBAT.

Thank you for your feedback.


To simplify the discussion, let's temporarily ignore the bulk connection. Based on your advice, we need to determine the maximum voltage of VDDA_IN and VBAT at the gate of P2.


What would be the best approach to achieve this? Would designing a comparator be necessary?

mosfet is symetrica element from both sides of S&D. remove the sign of triangle from S terminal and analyse your circuit in unwanted condition, then you will find the answer!
