Semiconductor component that includes a clamping structure and method of manufacturing the semiconductor component
Abstract:
Embodiments include a method and structure to that provide a clamping structure in an integrated semiconductor device. In accordance with an embodiment, the method includes forming trenches in a semiconductor material and forming a shield electrode in a portion of at least one of the trenches. A clamping structure is formed adjacent to a trench. The clamping structure has an electrode that may be electrically connected to a source region of the integrated semiconductor device. In accordance with another embodiment, an impedance element is formed in a trench.
