Abstract
A semiconductor component is arranged in a semiconductor body and has at least one integrated radially symmetrical lateral resistance having a location-dependent sheet resistance, the radial dependence of which is preferably configured such that the differential resistance dR is radially constant or the power dissipated in the resistance is radially constant.
Claims16
A semiconductor component arranged in a semiconductor body comprising at least one integrated radially symmetrical lateral resistance, wherein the differential resistance dR of the lateral resistance R is formed in location-independent fashion in such a way that the following holds true:
- dR/dr≈K,
- where dr is the differential radius of the lateral resistance and K is an arbitrary constant.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
