Abstract: A diode with a current sensor is disclosed. The diode includes an anode region, a cathode region, and a channel-stop region. The diode further includes a sense resistor that is connected between the channel-stop region and the cathode region. When the diode is forward biased, a sense current flows through the sense resistor that corresponds to the forward current flowing through the diode. When the diode is reverse biased, the channel-stop region helps prevent a breakdown condition in the diode.
