ABSTRACT:
In a semiconductor device including a field effect transistor comprising a base area, a source area, a drain area and a gate area provided on a channel forming area via a gate insulating area, the base area portion being sandwiched by the source area and the drain area, there is provided a drain electrode contacting the drain area, a source electrode contacting only the source area and a gate electrode contacting the gate area. Because this arrangement does not incorporate a parasitic diode, it can be used in a system utilizing the back electromotive force of the motor, in which a reverse current blocking diode is not included and a highly efficient driver circuit can be arranged. Further, there is provided a motor driver circuit utilizing such a semiconductor device.
