  • Abstract
    Lateral insulated gate transistors (LIGT´s) were fabricated to study their applicability for power integrated circuits. Three independent techniques for improving LIGT latching current are described in this paper. Devices that latch at 510 A/cm2have been fabricated; devices that current-limit at 475 A/cm2without latching have also been demonstrated.
