Abstract

A monolithically integrated semiconductor device preferably comprising a thyristor driven transistor is disclosed. The thyristor provides a base drive sufficient to fully turn-on an inherent bipolar transistor and achieve the maximum benefit of bipolar conduction within the semiconductor device. The thyristor can be turned on and off through insulated gate control by decoupling the emitter region of the thyristor from the cathode electrode of the device.
