  • Abstract
    A insulated-gate thyristor (IGTH) design for achieving high controllable current capability is described. A square-cellular design with high density of MOS-channels modulating the resistance of the base region of the NPN transistor of the thyristor structure is-used. The IGTH was fabricated using a double-diffused DMOS process and 1200 V devices with controllable currents in excess of 150 A were obtained
