Abstract
A high-breakdown voltage semiconductor switching device includes a resurf region of a second conductivity type; a base region of a first conductivity type formed to be adjacent to the resurf region; an emitter/source region of the second conductivity type formed in the base region to be spaced from the resurf region; a gate electrode formed to cover a portion of the emitter/source region and a portion of the resurf region; a drain region of the second conductivity type formed in the resurf region to be spaced from the base region; and a collector region of the first conductivity type formed in the resurf region to be spaced from the base region. Furthermore, it includes an electrode connected to the collector region and the drain region and an electrode connected to the base region and the emitter/source region.
