Abstract
A resistor-equipped transistor includes a package that provides an external collector connection node (), an external emitter connection node () and an external base connection node (). The package contains a substrate upon which a transistor (), first and second resistors, and first and second diodes are formed. The transistor has an internal collector (), an internal emitter () and an internal base () with the first resistor () being electrically connected between the internal base and the external base connection node and the second resistor () being electrically connected between the internal base and the internal emitter. The first and second diodes are electrically connected in series between the external base connection node and the external collector connection node with the first diode () having a first cathode-anode orientation that is opposite of a second cathode-anode orientation corresponding to the second diode ().
