Abstract:
An electric discharge device includes a bipolar transistor configuration comprising a base, an emitter, and a collector. At least one pinched resistor is formed in a region comprising both the base and emitter so as to produce a pinched resistive area that develops a voltage once the bipolar transistor experiences junction breakdown.
