Zusammenfassung:Described herein are apparatus, system, and method for reducing electrical over-stress of transistors and for generating an output with deterministic duty cycle for load independent buffers. The apparatus comprises a feedback capacitor electrically coupled between an input terminal and an output terminal of a buffer; and a switch, electrically parallel to the feedback capacitor and operable to electrically short the feedback capacitor in response to a control signal, wherein the switch causes a deterministic voltage level on the input terminal.
