    Abstract: A diode includes upper and lower electrodes and first and second N-type doped semiconductor substrate portions connected to the lower electrode. A first vertical transistor and a second transistor are formed in the first portion and series-connected between the electrodes. The gate of the first transistor is N-type doped and coupled to the upper electrode. The second transistor has a P channel and has a P-type doped gate. First and second doped areas of the second conductivity type are located in the second portion and are separated by a substrate portion topped with another N-type doped gate. The first doped area is coupled to the gate of the second transistor. The second doped area and the other gate are coupled to the upper electrode.

    Abstract: A rectifying circuit including: between a first terminal of application of an AC voltage and a first rectified voltage delivery terminal, at least one first diode; and between a second terminal of application of the AC voltage and a second rectified voltage delivery terminal, at least one first anode-gate thyristor, the anode of the first thyristor being connected to the second rectified voltage delivery terminal; and at least one first stage for controlling the first thyristor, including: a first transistor coupling the thyristor gate to a terminal of delivery of a potential which is negative with respect to the potential of the second rectified voltage delivery terminal; and a second transistor connecting a control terminal of the first transistor to a terminal for delivering a potential which is positive with respect to the potential of the second rectified voltage delivery terminal, the anode of the first thyristor being connected to the common potential of voltages defined by said positive and negative potentials.

    Abstract: A vertical power component includes a doped silicon substrate of a first conductivity type. A local well of a second conductivity type extends from an upper surface of the substrate. A passivation structure coats a peripheral region of the upper surface side of the substrate surrounding the well. This passivation structure includes, on top of and in contact with the peripheral substrate region, a first region made of a first passivation material and a second region made of a second passivation material. The second region generates, in a surface region of the substrate in contact with said second region, a local increase of the concentration of majority carriers in the substrate.
