<p>A charging circuit for a bootstrap capacitance employing an integrated LDMOS transistor and including a circuital device for preventing the turning on of parasitic transistors of the integrated LDMOS structure during transients that comprises a plurality of directly biased junctions (D1, D2, ..., Dn) connected in series between a source and a body of the LDMOS transistor structure and at least a current generator, tied to ground potential, coupled between said body and ground, has at least one switch (INT1) between said source and a first junction (D1) of said plurality of junctions and a limiting resistance (R) connected between the body and the current generator (GEN). The switch (INT1) is kept open during a charging phase of the bootstrap capacitance (Cboot) and is closed when the charge voltage (Vboot) of the bootstrap capacitance reaches a preset threshold. Moreover, the body voltage (VB) is prevented from exceeding the source voltage (VS) plus a Vbe, by controlling a discharge path (T2) with a control stage (T1, R1) in response to a drop of the voltage on the limiting resistance (R). This body voltage control circuit is enabled by a second switch (INT2) driven in phase with the first switch (INT1). <IMAGE></p> |
