摘要:
A power MOS transistor formed of an array of source cells and drain cells on an IC chip substrate has a plurality of substrate contact cells, each formed external to the source cells, having respective substrate potential-setting electrodes to which an externally supplied substrate bias voltage can be applied, enabling the substrate potential to be set independently of the source potential of the transistor. It thereby becomes possible to modify the threshold voltage of the transistor or maintain a constant potential difference between the substrate potential and that of a gate input signal. Since the requirement for a substrate contact region within each source cell is eliminated, and the number of substrate contact cells can be fewer than that of the source cells, the chip area occupied by the transistor can be reduced by comparison with a prior art configuration providing such a substrate potential control capability.

In order to protect semiconductor switching-devices employed in an H bridge circuit against an over-voltage without using a special protection circuit, a control circuit outputs a control signal to a driving circuit for driving the H bridge circuit in order to turn off FETs serving as the semiconductor switching-devices when an over-voltage detection circuit detects the over-voltage applied to the H bridge circuit.

An electric device includes: a first electric element; a second electric element capable of flowing large current therethrough so that heat is generated in the second electric element; a heat sink; and a first wiring board and a second wiring board, which are disposed on one side of the heat sink. The large current in the second electric element is larger than that in the first electric element. The first wiring board and the second wiring board are separated each other. The first electric element is disposed on the first wiring board, and the second electric element is disposed on the second wiring board.

When a semiconductor device having an element isolation structure is formed, first, a trench is formed in a wafer from a principal surface of the wafer, and the trench is filled with an insulating film. Then, the back surface of the wafer is polished so that the insulating film is exposed on the back surface. Accordingly, the insulating film penetrates the wafer from the principal surface to the back surface, thereby performing element isolation of the wafer. It is not necessary to use a bonding wafer. Thus, the method for manufacturing the semiconductor device is simplified.
