Title: Mats Schmalhorst: Semiconductor Invention and Patent
Introduction
Mats Schmalhorst is an inventor associated with Dortmund, Germany. His patent work includes a device and method designed to inhibit substrate current in an integrated-circuit semiconductor substrate.
Latest Patents
Schmalhorst is credited with 1 patent: “Device and Method for Inhibiting a Substrate Current in an IC Semiconductor Substrate.” The invention describes devices and methods for preventing substrate current from being injected into the substrate of a CMOS circuit. The system detects the potential at a circuit contact and compares it with a reference value. When the detected potential is at or below that value, the contact is connected to a leakage-circuit node, diverting current so it does not flow to ground through a parasitic lateral bipolar structure. The leakage node may connect to the reference-potential line or to another line with a higher potential.
Career Highlights
Schmalhorst has been associated with Elmos Semiconductor SE and Hyundai Mobis Corporation. His patent addresses current management in CMOS circuits, a technical challenge relevant to semiconductor device design.
Collaborations
His listed coworkers include Andre Sudhaus and Uwe Friemann.
Conclusion
Mats Schmalhorst’s patent describes a circuit approach for detecting and redirecting substrate current, reflecting his contribution to semiconductor technology.
