Abstract:
A circuit has first and second semiconductor switches, each of which has a load path and control terminal connected in series. Each switch includes a first semiconductor device having a load path and a control terminal coupled to the control terminal of its switch, and a second semiconductor device having a load path between first and second load terminals, and a control terminal. Each second semiconductor device has its load path connected in series to the load path of the corresponding first semiconductor device. The semiconductor devices are coupled such that the second semiconductor devices are controlled by a load path voltage of the first semiconductor devices. The switches are integrated in a common semiconductor body. The first switch is implemented in a first area of the semiconductor body, and the second switch is implemented in a second area. In a horizontal plane, the first area surrounds the second area.

Claim (Index 7):
The circuit arrangement of  claim 6 , further comprising:\n a terminal for a first supply potential connected to the load path of the second semiconductor switch; and a terminal for a second supply potential connected to the load path of the first semiconductor switch, wherein the first semiconductor device of each semiconductor switch is a depletion MOSFET, wherein a series circuit with the first semiconductor device and the second semiconductor device of at least one semiconductor switch has at least one tap, wherein the drive circuit further comprises: a voltage limiting element coupled between the tap and the control terminal of the second semiconductor switch; a switching element coupled between the control terminal of the second semiconductor switch and a circuit node between the load paths of the first semiconductor switch and the second semiconductor switch; and a further switching element coupled between the control terminal of the second semiconductor switch and the terminal for the second supply potential.
