Abstract: A semiconductor device with inherent capacitances and method for its production. The semiconductor device has an inherent feedback capacitance between a control electrode and a first electrode. In addition, the semiconductor device has an inherent drain-source capacitance between the first electrode and a second electrode. At least one monolithically integrated additional capacitance is connected in parallel to the inherent feedback capacitance or in parallel to the inherent drain-source capacitance. The additional capacitance comprises a first capacitor surface and a second capacitor surface opposite the first capacitor surface. The capacitor surfaces are structured conductive layers of the semiconductor device on a front side of the semiconductor body, between which a dielectric layer is located and which form at least one additional capacitor.

Abstract: A semiconductor device is provided which has a semiconductor substrate. An active cell area having at least one active cell is formed in the semiconductor substrate, wherein at least sections of the active cell area are surrounded by an edge termination region. An integrated gate runner structure is arranged at least partially in the edge termination region and has at least one low electrical resistance portion and at least one high electrical resistance portion which are electrically connected in series with each other.

Abstract: An integrated circuit device includes a semiconductor body fitted with a first electrode and a second electrode on opposite surfaces. A control electrode on an insulating layer controls channel regions of body zones for a current flow between the two electrodes. A drift section adjoining the channel regions comprises drift zones and charge compensation zones. A part of the charge compensation zones includes conductively connected charge compensation zones electrically connected to the first electrode. Another part includes nearly-floating charge compensation zones, so that an increased control electrode surface has a monolithically integrated additional capacitance CZGD in a cell region of the semiconductor device.
