  • Patent number: 5278443
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a diode having a Schottky barrier and a MOS transistor integrally formed in one and the same semiconductor substrate in which the diode and MOS transistor have their main electrode in common use. The diode has a first diode portion having a pn junction in a current-passing direction and a second diode portion having a combination of the Schottky barrier and another pn junction in the current passing direction.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: January 11, 1994
    Assignees: Hitachi, Ltd., Hitachi Haramachi Semiconductor, Ltd.
    Inventors: Mutsuhiro Mori, Yasumiti Yasuda, Naoki Sakurai, Hidetoshi Arakawa, Hiroshi Owada
  • Patent number: 5166760
    Abstract: A semiconductor device is provided wherein a first diode having a pn junction and a second diode having a combination of a Schottky barrier and a pn junction in a current-passing direction are provided side by side in a direction perpendicular to the current-passing direction. When a forward current with a current density J.sub.F is passed into the second diode, the relation ##EQU1## is established in a forward voltage V.sub.F range of 0.1 (V) to 0.3 (V), where k represents the Boltzmann constant (.apprxeq.1.38.times.10.sup.-23 J/K), T represents the absolute temperature, and q represents the quantity of electron charges (.apprxeq.1.6.times.10.sup.-19 C).
