Snapback-Free Reverse-Conducting SOI LIGBT with an Integrated Self-Biased MOSFET.

A novel snapback-free RC-LIGBT with integrated self-biased N-MOSFET is proposed and investigated by simulation. The device features an integrated self-biased N-MOSFET(ISM) on the anode active region. One side of the ISM is shorted to the P + anode electrode of RC-LIGBT and the other side is connected to the N + anode via a floating ohmic contact.
