摘要:
A low resistance layer is formed on a semiconductor substrate, and a high resistance layer formed on the low resistance layer. A source region of a first conductivity type is formed on a surface region of the high resistance layer. A drain region of the first conductivity type is formed at a distance from the source region. A first resurf region of the first conductivity type is formed in a surface region of the high resistance layer between the source region and the drain region. A channel region of a second conductivity type is formed between the source region and the first resurf region. A gate insulating film is formed on the channel region, and a gate electrode formed on the gate insulating film. An impurity concentration in the channel region under the gate electrode gradually lowers from the source region toward the first resurf region.

A semiconductor device comprises a high side switching element, a driver circuit, and a low side switching element. The high side switching element is formed on a first semiconductor substrate, has a current path to one end of which an input voltage is supplied, and the other end of the current path is connected to an inductance. The driver circuit is formed on the first semiconductor substrate, on which the high side switching element is formed, and drives the high side switching element.

A negative buffer layer and a positive collector layer are formed on a side of one surface of a semiconductor substrate. The positive collector layer is set to have a low dose amount and set shallow so that a low injection efficiency emitter structure is realized. Break down voltage of a power device is controlled by a thickness of a drift layer. A positive base layer, a negative emitter layer and a positive base contact layer are formed on a side of the other surface of the semiconductor substrate. A negative low resistant layer reduces a junction FET effect. An emitter electrode comes into contact with the negative emitter layer and the positive base contact layer. A collector electrode comes into contact with the positive collector layer. A gate electrode is formed on a gate insulating film above a channel region on a surface portion of the positive base layer.

A sub-gate electrode is arranged to face, through a gate insulating film, a surface of a first p-type base layer which is interposed between a first n-type source layer and an n-type drift layer, and a surface of a second p-type base layer which is interposed between a second n-type source layer and the n-type drift layer and faces the first p-type base layer. A main gate electrode is arranged to face, through a gate insulating film, a surface of the second p-type base layer which is interposed between the second n-type source layer and the n-type drift layer and does not face the first p-type base layer. Three n-type MOSFETs are constructed such that one n-type channel is to be formed in the first p-type base layer and two n-type channels are to be formed in the second p-type base layer. The three channels are to be formed, so that the channel width is effectively enlarged and the current density is increased. The second p-type base layer has a length of 10 .mu.m or less in the drifting direction.

An n.sup.- -type silicon active layer having a thickness of 6 .mu.m or less is formed on a silicon substrate via a silicon oxide film. An npn bipolar transistor with a low withstand voltage and an IGBT with a high withstand voltage are formed in the active layer.

The n-type well layer and the first n.sup.+ -type diffusion layer serve as a collector region. The p-type well layer and the p.sup.+ -type diffusion layer serve as a base region. The second n.sup.+ -type diffusion layer serves as an emitter region.
