摘要:
An electro static discharge device includes a semiconductor body. The semiconductor body includes a first surface, a first semiconductor region of a first conductivity type, a second semiconductor region of a second conductivity type arranged on the first semiconductor region and a third semiconductor region of the first conductivity type. The third semiconductor region is isolated from the first semiconductor region by the second semiconductor region. A resistor structure is arranged in the semiconductor body and comprises at least one trench structure. The resistor structure is arranged at least in the second semiconductor region and provides a high-resistance electrical connection between a first portion and a second portion of the second semiconductor region.
摘要:
A transistor has a cell array with two or more transistor cells, a temperature sensor, which is integrated in the cell array or is adjacent to the cell array, and an isolation structure. The isolation structure isolates the temperature sensor from the cell array, and has an isolation trench, which is arranged between the cell array and the temperature sensor. The distance between the temperature sensor and the active transistor cell that is closest to the temperature sensor corresponds approximately to the pitch between active transistor cells within the cell array.
