  • Publication number: 20180190808
    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention shows a high-voltage MOS field-effect transistor connected in series with a Schottky diode. When the Schottky diode is forwardly biased, the high-voltage MOSFET can act as a switch and sustain a high drain-to-source voltage. When the Schottky diode is reversely biased, the Schottky diode can protect the integrate circuit where the high-voltage MOSFET is formed, because the integrate circuit might otherwise burn out due to an exceedingly-large reverse current.
