ABSTRACT:
A device for regulating the current intensity of an electric current to be supplied to a load and generated by a current/voltage source is disclosed. In one embodiment, the device includes a semiconductor body, a first electrode, which is connected electrically to the front side of the semiconductor body and can be connected electrically to the current/voltage source, a second electrode, which is connected electrically to the rear side of the semiconductor body and can be connected electrically to the load, a vertical transistor formed in the semiconductor body, by means of which electric current flows between the first and second electrode can be generated/controlled, and a control circuit, which drives the transistor in such a way that the intensities of the current flows between the first and second electrode are regulated to specific values.
