Abstract
A field-effect-controllable semiconductor component has at least one source zone and at least one drain zone of a first conductivity type, and at least one body zone of a second conductivity type. The body zone is provided between the source zone and the drain zone. In each case at least a first and a second region of the second conductivity type are provided in a channel zone. The first region has a first doping concentration and the second region has a second doping concentration, which is lower than the first doping concentration. The combination of the two regions produces a semiconductor component threshold voltage greater than zero and the on resistance is lower than that merely due to a channel zone doped with the first or second doping concentration.
