<p>Hybrid power switching semiconductor devices advantageously integrate IGT and MOSFET structures. The IGT and MOSFET portions of the overall device include respective gate structures each having an associated gate electrode capacitance, and the hybrid device includes a resistance element connecting the IGT and MOSFET gates. The gate structures preferably comprise polysilicon electrodes, and the resistance element comprises a polysilicon bridge formed at the same time during device fabrication. The overall device has only a single gate terminal, which is connected relatively directly to one of the IGT and MOSFET gates, and indirectly through the resistance element to the other of the IGT and MOSFET gates such that an RC time delay network is defined. Two different types of power switching functions are achieved depending upon whether the overall device gate terminal is connected nearer the IGT gate or the MOSFET gate.</p> |
