Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a thyristor disposed in a semiconductor body. The thyristor has an anode, a cathode, a first bipolar transistor located on an anode side, and a second bipolar transistor located on a cathode side. The first and second bipolar transistors are nested and connected between the anode and the cathode. A MOS transistor is disposed in the semiconductor body. The MOS transistor is coupled between a collector region and an emitter region of the second bipolar transistor. The MOS transistor has a gate region connected to the cathode via a resistive semiconductor region that incorporates at least a part of a base region of the second bipolar transistor.

Claim (Index 18):
An semiconductor device comprising:\n a semiconductor body; a thyristor formed in the semiconductor body and having an anode and a cathode, the thyristor comprising a first bipolar transistor and a second bipolar transistor, the first and second bipolar transistors being nested and connected between the anode and the cathode; and a MOS transistor formed in the semiconductor body and having a conduction path coupled in parallel with a primary conduction path of the second bipolar transistor, and a gate connected to the cathode through a resistive semiconductor region formed within the semiconductor body, wherein the MOS transistor is configured to trigger the thyristor during an electrostatic discharge (ESD) event at the anode or the cathode.
