    摘要: A high voltage solid-state switch, which provides bidirectional blocking, consists of a first p- type semiconductor body having a major surface and being separated from a support member (semiconductor substrate) by a dielectric layer with a p+ type anode region located at one end of the semiconductor body and having a portion which is common with the major surface, an n+ type cathode region located at the other end and having a portion which is common with the major surface, and an n+ type gate region having a portion which is common with the major surface and in one embodiment being located essentially between the anode and cathode regions and in another embodiment being located other than directly between the anode and cathode regions. A second p type region of higher impurity concentration than the semiconductor body surrounds the cathode region. An n+ type semiconductor layer is sandwiched between the semiconductor body and the dielectric layer. Separate low resistance electrical contacts are made to the anode, cathode, and gate regions and to the substrate. The switch is capable of switching from an "ON" and conducting state to an "OFF" (blocking) state by adjusting the potential of the gate region and without having to adjust the potential of the anode or cathode regions.

    摘要: Integrated circuit complementary transistors for high voltage switching applications are fabricated in separate dielectrically-isolated pockets (12), (14) of high resistivity silicon, supported in a conductive medium (11) such as polycrystalline silicon, using surface adjacent conductivity type zones constituting emitter (19), (23), base (16), (20) and collector zones (17), (21). In one embodiment using high resistivity (75-300 ohm cm) silicon, referred to as .pi. material, for the material of the pocket, one transistor is a PN.pi.P device, and the other is an NP.pi.N. In the PN.pi.P the reverse-biased base-collector pn junction is the interface between the N base zone (16) and the .pi. portion (12) of the collector zone. In the NP.pi.N transistor the base-collector junction is the interface between the lightly doped .pi. extension (14) of the base zone (20) and the N collector zone (21). A connection (32) is provided to the conductive substrate to enable application of a suitable potential thereto.

    摘要: Disclosed is a monolithic transistor circuit for high voltage applications. A high impedance bleed resistor is effectively provided across the emitter-base junction of one of the transistors. This is accomplished by placing the base regions of this and another transistor at a selected distance apart so that the zero bias depletion regions of the bases overlap to produce a punch through condition resulting in a desired current density therebetween when an external bias is supplied. The devices thus produced have a high current carrying capacity with low leakage currents.

    摘要: To switch a first gated diode switch (GDS1) to the "OFF" state requires a voltage applied to the gate which is more positive than that of the anode or cathode and a sourcing of current into the gate of substantially the same order of magnitude as flows between the anode and cathode of the first switch. Control circuitry, which uses a second gated diode switch (GDSC) coupled by the cathode to the gate of the first switch (GDS1), is used to control the state of the first switch (GDS1). The control circuitry comprises a first branch circuit coupled to the gate of GDSC and to a first potential source +V1 and a second branch circuit coupled to the anode of GDSC and to a second potential source V2. The first branch circuit is connected to the gate of the second switch (GDSC) and controls the state thereof. The second branch circuit helps switch the first switch to the OFF state by providing a single current pulse or a plurality of current pulses into the gate of the first switch.
