Abstract :
Industrial Power ICs (Smart Power) are mainly intended for the automotive industry. Usually, they are manufactured using the junction-based isolation technological process. This paper deals with the main elements associated with the future development of this type of circuit. Among the basic issues dealt with are: industrial development, decrease in chip size using submicronic technologies, energy capability and some problems related to electrical isolation
