1. A method for gating a power supply, comprising:

  • capacitively coupling a gating command terminal to an on/off switch;

    providing a positive voltage source and a negative voltage source at the on/off switch;

    providing a gating command signal at the gating command terminal, the gating command signal operable to activate the on/off switch;

    generating an off signal at an output terminal of the on/off switch in response to an off state of the on/off switch being activated, a pulse width of the off signal being less than a pulse width of the gating command signal; and

    generating an on signal at the output terminal of the on/off switch in response to an on state of the on/off switch being activated, a pulse width of the on signal being less than the pulse width of the gating command signal.
