Abstract:
An insulated gate field-effect transistor constructed by forming, in a portion of the semiconductor substrate close to the source region, a region which constitutes a p-n junction with the substrate, and by connecting this latter region to the gate electrode, whereby there is caused, between said region and the source, a current due to punch-through at high gate voltage so that the breakdown of the transistor is prevented.
