Default Supercharger boost control

I know very little about super-chargers, how is the boost controlled on them? Obviously pulley ratios dictate the speed which in turn makes boost, but is there a by-pass valve on them like a wastegate etc? Do the roots/ lysholm and centrifulgal have different methods?
