Abstract

1525557 Semiconductor devices SGS-ATES COMPONENTI ELETTRONICI SpA 27 June 1977 [25 June 1976] 26755/77 Heading H1K An IC diode having a high reverse saturation voltage is formed in an island defined by isolation regions 14 in a N-semiconductor layer 12 on a P-substrate 10, and includes a Pregion 18, an N<SP>+</SP> region 22 surrounding the P region at the surface, a P region 40 between the P region 18 and the N<SP>+</SP> region 22 at the surface, and a metal layer 43 connecting the P region 40 with the N<SP>+</SP> region 22. The conductivity types may be reversed.
