  • High current lateral transistor structure
    Patent number: 4684970
    Abstract: A high current lateral transistor for an integrated circuit device is disclosed. The emitter and collector regions extend into the base region for a distance of approximately one half the thickness of the base region. A second region of the same conductivity type as the collector, surrounds the collector and is spaced therefrom. The base contact shorts together this second region and the base region so that when the transistor goes into saturation excess current will not flow into the substrate.
