Abstract :
This report describes the novel use of the field-plate in a SOI HV power FET as a VDS sensing terminal. The sensing terminal can be used in over-voltage protection schemes without the need of an external clamping circuit. We have shown that this scheme can be employed without any degradation of the power FET performance.
