Abstract

Dispositif semi-conducteur monolithique comprenant deux transistors formant amplificateur Darlington. Dispositif protégé au moyen d'une diode formée par la couche épitaxiale de base et une région enterrée de type opposé située au niveau de la jonction base-collecteur du transistor d'entrée, la tension de claquage de ladite diode étant inférieure au BVCEO du transistor de puissance. Application aux dispositifs Darlington fonctionnant sur charge inductive.Monolithic semiconductor device comprising two transistors forming Darlington amplifier. Device protected by means of a diode formed by the base epitaxial layer and a buried region of opposite type located at the base-collector junction of the input transistor, the breakdown voltage of said diode being lower than the BVCEO of the transistor power. Application to Darlington devices operating on inductive load.
