An n type impurity region is provided below a gate electrode. By setting a gate length to be less than a depth of a channel region, a side surface of the channel region and a side surface of the n type impurity region adjacent to the channel region form a substantially perpendicular junction surface. Thus, since a depletion layer widens uniformly in a depth direction of a substrate, it is possible to secure a predetermined breakdown voltage. Furthermore, since an interval between the channel regions, above which the gate electrode is disposed, is uniform from its surface to its bottom, it is possible to increase an impurity concentration of the n type impurity region, resulting in an achievement of a low on-resistance.

A separation hole is provided in the center of the gate electrode. Accordingly, it is possible to suppress a drastic increase in feedback capacitance Crss in the case where drain-source voltage VDS is decreased and the width of the depletion layer is narrowed. Thus, high-frequency switching characteristics are improved. Moreover, n type impurities are implanted from the separation hole to form an n type impurity region between channel regions. Since a resistance in a portion below the gate electrode can be reduced, an on-resistance can be reduced. The n type impurity region can be formed in a self-aligning manner.

Conventionally, a guard ring for securing a breakdown voltage is provided around a Schottky barrier diode. Since the guard ring is a p+ type region, a depletion layer expands around the guard ring when a reverse voltage is applied to prevent a reduction in capacitance. In addition, there is a problem in that, when a forward voltage is applied, holes are injected from the guard ring if the applied voltage exceeds a predetermined voltage and high-speed operation cannot be realized. To solve the problems, a trench is provided in a guard ring region of the conventional technique and an insulating film is provided inside the trench. The trench is provided to reach an n+ type semiconductor substrate. Consequently, since the depletion layer expands only in a depth direction until the depletion layer reaches the n+ type semiconductor substrate, it is possible to realize a reduction in capacitance. In addition, since the p+ type region is made unnecessary, a reverse recovery time (Trr) does not occur. Therefore, it is possible to improve switching operation speed.

In a conventional semiconductor device, there was a problem that, in a guard ring region, a shape of a depletion layer is distorted and stable withstand voltage characteristics cannot be obtained. In a semiconductor device of the present invention, a thermal oxide film in an actual operation region and a thermal oxide film in a guard ring region are formed in the same process. Thereafter, the thermal oxide film is once removed and is formed again. Thus, a film thickness of the thermal oxide film on the upper surface of the guard ring region is set to, for example, about 8000 to 10000 Å. Accordingly, a CVD oxide film including moving ions is formed in a position distant from a surface of an epitaxial layer. Consequently, distortion of a depletion layer, which is influenced by the moving ions, is suppressed and desired withstand voltage characteristics can be maintained.

A secondary battery is charged in alternating charging and pulse-charging periods in which the secondary battery is continuously charged during the charging periods and the secondary battery is charged in a series of charging pulses during the pulse-charging periods. The terminal voltage or the temperature of the secondary battery may be sampled during at least one interval between the pulses in a pulse-charging period to detect a full charge level or an excessive temperature, respectively. Such an arrangement can reduce charging time and facilitate accurate monitoring of the terminal voltage or the temperature.
