  • Monolithic cell for an integrated circuit and especially a monolithic switching cell
    Patent number: 10199376
    Abstract: A cell includes at least two semiconductor structures of the same nature, these two structures both employing voltages and currents that are unidirectional, each structure having an anode (10), a cathode (14) and optionally a gate (16). The structures are integrated into the volume of one and the same semiconductor substrate (4). The cathodes (14), and possibly the gates (16), are arranged on a first side of the semiconductor substrate (4). The anodes (10) are each arranged on a second side of the semiconductor substrate (4), which side is opposite the first side, facing the cathodes and possibly the corresponding gates. Two electrodes, anodes or cathodes, of two separate structures, are electrically connected to each other.
