Abstract
A semiconductor device with inherent capacitances and method for its production. The semiconductor device has an inherent feedback capacitance between a control electrode and a first electrode. In addition, the semiconductor device has an inherent drain-source capacitance between the first electrode and a second electrode. At least one monolithically integrated additional capacitance is connected in parallel to the inherent feedback capacitance or in parallel to the inherent drain-source capacitance. The additional capacitance comprises a first capacitor surface and a second capacitor surface opposite the first capacitor surface. The capacitor surfaces are structured conductive layers of the semiconductor device on a front side of the semiconductor body, between which a dielectric layer is located and which form at least one additional capacitor.
