Abstract:
A semiconductor integrated circuit for driving a control terminal of a switching device includes: a driver circuit that alternately applies a positive voltage supplied from a positive voltage source and a negative voltage supplied from a negative voltage source to the control terminal in order to switch the switching device ON and OFF; and a negative voltage clamp diode that is integrated into a semiconductor chip on which the driver circuit is formed, an anode thereof being connected to the negative voltage source and a cathode thereof being connected to the control terminal.

Claim (Index 6):
The semiconductor integrated circuit according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the semiconductor chip includes:\n a semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type; \n an offset region of a second conductivity type formed in an upper portion of the semiconductor layer of the first conductivity type; \n an anode region of the second conductivity type formed in an upper portion of the offset region and having a higher impurity concentration than the offset region; and \n a cathode region of the first conductivity type formed in an upper portion of the semiconductor layer and having a higher impurity concentration than the semiconductor layer, and \n wherein the anode region, the offset region, the semiconductor layer, and the cathode region together constitute the negative voltage clamp diode.
