A high voltage switching device includes a switching circuit for switching a high voltage to an output line and for providing a control signal. The high voltage switching device also includes a switching transistor connected to the switching circuit for switching a low voltage to the output line based upon the control signal. The output signal is controlled by a control circuit that sets up a control loop between the drop in the gate voltage level of the switching transistor and the voltage level of the output line that is controlled by the switching circuit.
