摘要:
A semiconductor substrate is provided thereon with an insulated gate bipolar transistor which is a composite element of a pnpn thyristor and an N-channel MOS-FET. In order to monitor operating current of the insulated gate bipolar transistor, a monitor terminal is provided in addition to collector, emitter and gate terminals. The operating current of the insulated gate bipolar transistor is monitored through the monitor terminal to perform appropriate protective operation when the operating current reaches a critical region, thereby to prevent occurrence of a latch-up phenomenon.
