An electrical output stage suitable for high-voltage operation, including a first MOSFET, a second MOSFET, a first switching device, a second switching device, and reverse bias circuitry. The first and second MOSFETs are electrically coupled in series between a power rail and an output node. The first switching device is configured to control a gate-to-source voltage of the first MOSFET, and the second switching device is configured to control a gate-to-source voltage of the second MOSFET. The reverse bias circuitry is configured to bias a source of the second MOSFET such that a gate of the second MOSFET is reversed biased with respect to the source of the second MOSFET, when each of the first MOSFET and the second MOSFET is in its respective off-state.
