Patent ID: 8193584

Claim:
A transistor component comprising: a drift zone; a body zone; a source zone; and a drain zone, wherein the drift zone is arranged between the body zone and the drain zone and the body zone is arranged between the source zone and the drift zone; a gate electrode, dielectrically insulated from the body zone by a gate dielectric; a gate-source capacitance, formed between the gate electrode and the source zone; a gate-drain capacitance, formed between the gate electrode and the drain zone; and a drift control zone, arranged adjacent to the drift zone and dielectrically insulated from the drift zone by a drift control zone dielectric; comprising at least one of the following: at least one first capacitive component connected between the gate electrode and the source zone in addition to the gate-source capacitance; at least one second capacitive component connected between the gate electrode and the drain zone in addition to the gate-drain capacitance, wherein the drift zone, the body zone, the drain zone and the source zone and also the at least one first or second capacitive component are integrated in a common semiconductor body, wherein the first or second capacitive component is integrated at least in sections in the drift control zone or in a manner adjoining the drift control zone in the semiconductor body, wherein the drift control zone is coupled to the drain zone, and wherein the at least one second capacitive component comprises: a first electrode, connected to the gate electrode; and a second dielectric, arranged between the first electrode and the drift control zone.
