1. A bootstrap module for delivering an output voltage to a switch, the bootstrap module comprising:

  • an input capable of receiving an input voltage;

    an output capable of delivering the output voltage, the output voltage being no less than a preselected voltage required to maintain the switch in an on state, the preselected voltage being referenced to the input voltage; and

    a set of input switches between the input and output, the set of input switches being capable of alternatively communicating the input voltage with the output, the output voltage being a function of the input voltage, the set of input switches including at least one complimentary switch.
