    Abstract: Power semiconductor device structure formed in a chip (100) of semiconductor material consisting of an N-type substrate (103) and an N-type epitaxial layer (118). The structure comprises a P-type insulation region (106, 121) which forms a pocket (124) in which a control circuitry is formed, and a plurality of fully insulated PNP power transistors. Each PNP power transistor comprises a P-type collector region (109, 127) consisting of an buried region (109) between the substrate (103) and the epitaxial layer (118) and a contact region (127); the P region (109, 127) delimits a base N region (130) within which an emitter P region (148) is formed.

    Abstract: The analog processor of this invention can carry out processings independently of the operating temperature and process parameters, in a reliable manner and at high performance levels using fairly simple circuitry.
    To achieve this independence, the processor is basically implemented and integrated with MOS transistors, has both voltage inputs (AI) and outputs (OUT), and includes a biasing section (BIAS) which supplies voltage bias signals (VG), of which at least one is substantially the sum of a voltage proportional to the threshold voltage of the MOS transistors and a reference voltage.
    This reference voltage can be extracted from a reference potential which is stable to temperature and process parameters, for example that produced by a bandgap type of generator.
    A major feature of the processor according to the invention is the linearity of its input-output characteristic relative to that reference voltage. It follows that it may be advantageous to extract that reference voltage by division from a signal indicating the width of the input signal variation range, thereby to achieve compensation for or independence of variations of this range.

    Abstract translation: 本发明的模拟处理器可以使用相当简单的电路以可靠的方式和高性能水平独立于工作温度和工艺参数进行处理。 为了实现这种独立性,处理器基本上实现并与MOS晶体管集成,具有电压输入(AI)和输出(OUT)两者,并且包括提供电压偏置信号(VG)的偏置部分(BIAS),其至少 一个基本上是与MOS晶体管的阈值电压成比例的电压和参考电压的总和。 可以从对温度和工艺参数稳定的参考电位提取该参考电压,例如由带隙型发生器产生的参考电压。 根据本发明的处理器的主要特征是其输入 - 输出特性相对于该参考电压的线性。 因此,通过从指示输入信号变化范围的宽度的信号中分离来提取参考电压可能是有利的,从而实现对该范围的变化的补偿或独立性。
