ABSTRACT:
A monolithic, integrated semiconductor circuit comprising a high-voltage ice (210) with a predetermined reverse-conduction threshold comprising a chain of zener diodes (220-240). Device 210 is connected in series with a thermal compensation device (250) constituted by a plurality of Vbe multipliers connected in series with one another. Each of the Vbe multipliers is formed by a resistive divider (R1i, R2i) and a low-voltage transistor (Ti) or two or more low-voltage transistors in a Darlington configuration.
