    Abstract: A microelectronic device includes a doped region of semiconductor material having a first region and an opposite second region. The microelectronic device is configured to provide a first operational potential at the first region and to provide a second operational potential at the second region. The microelectronic device includes field plate segments in trenches extending into the doped region. Each field plate segment is separated from the semiconductor material by a trench liner of dielectric material. The microelectronic device further includes circuitry electrically connected to each of the field plate segments. The circuitry is configured to apply bias potentials to the field plate segments. The bias potentials are monotonic with respect to distances of the field plate segments from the first region of the doped region.

    Abstract: A device includes first and second device terminals, a fuse, a first circuit, a first transistor, and a control circuit. The fuse terminal couples to the first device terminal. The first circuit couples to the second fuse terminal. The second fuse terminal has a first voltage. The first transistor has a first control input and first and second current terminals. The first current terminal couples to the second fuse terminal, and the second current terminal couples to the second device terminal. The control circuit: turns “on” the first transistor into a saturation region if the first voltage exceeds a threshold and a current through the fuse exceeds a trip threshold current of the fuse; and turns “on” the first transistor into a linear region if the first voltage exceeds a threshold and a current through the fuse is below the trip threshold current of the fuse.

    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to integrated devices with a conductive barrier structure. In an example, a semiconductor device includes a substrate, a conductive barrier structure, a channel layer, a barrier layer, a gate, and a conductive structure. The substrate is of a first semiconductor material. The conductive barrier structure is on the substrate. The channel layer is of a second semiconductor material and is on the conductive barrier structure. The barrier layer is on the channel layer, and the channel layer is between the barrier layer and the conductive barrier structure. The gate is over the barrier layer opposing the channel layer. The conductive structure is electrically coupled between the conductive barrier structure, the channel layer, and the barrier layer.
