Abstract
A thyristor includes a base region, a pair of first doping regions, at least one second doping region, at least one third doping region, and a pair of metal layers. The first doping regions are formed in two opposite sides of the base region and touch the base region. The second doping region is formed between the base region and one of the first doping regions. The second doping region touches the base region and the first doping region. The third doping region is formed in one of the first doping regions and touches the first doping region. The type of the first doping region is different from the types of the second doping region, the third doping region, and the base region. The metal layers touch the first doping regions respectively. The first doping regions and the third doping region are located between the metal layers.
