ABSTRACT:
It is intended to provide a field-effective-type semiconductor device that can let low ON-resistance and non-excessive short-circuit current go together by effectively using its channel width and prevents device from destruction. In a field-effective-type semiconductor device, a semiconductor region arranged between gate electrodes106has stripe-patterned structure consisting of an N+emitter region104and a P emitter region. The P emitter region is constituted by P channel region103of low concentration and P+emitter region100of high concentration. The N+emitter region104,the P channel region103,and the P+emitter region100are in contact with the emitter electrode109.Thereby, a channel width X is limited to the extent that is enough for ON current under normal operation state. That is, low ON-resistance and not excessive short-circuit current can go together in the field-effective-type semiconductor device.
