ABSTRACT:
An improved lateral insulated gate transistor includes a dual function anode and employs specially configured anode and cathode regions within the drift layer to promote lateral current flow. A vertical diode is disposed between a substrate cathode and anode of the device. Under forward bias conditions, the device exhibits insulated gate controlled conduction, and under reverse bias conditions, the device exhibits conduction between the substrate cathode and anode of the vertical diode.
