Abstract

The invention provides an optical coupling bidirectional thyristor element capable realizing quality stabilization and chip reduction. The bidirectional thyristor element has a semiconductor chip which forms a first photosensitive thyristor portion (12a) and a second photosensitive thyristor portion (12b) which are mutually separated on a semiconductor substrate (11). Each photosensitive thyristor portion has a PNPN portion. The bidirectional thyristor element also has a joint bonding pad electrically connected to an anode diffusion region (13) and a cathode diffusion region (15) and insulated from a control electrode diffusion region (14). The PNPN portions of the first and second photosensitive thyristor portions (12a, 12b) are substantially point-symmetrically configured relative to a center of the semiconductor chip, or substantially line-symmetrically configured relative to a line segment passing through the center and in parallel to one side. The joint bonding pad (18a) of the first photosensitive thyristor portion (12a) and the joint bonding pad (18b) of a second photosensitive thyristor portion (12b) are mutually separately configured on one end side and the other end side of the above line segment in the extending direction.

Background technique [0002] Conventionally, as an optical coupling triac, there is a planar semiconductor element disclosed in JP-A-10-209431 (Patent Document 1). [0003] The planar semiconductor element has two channels composed of two anode regions, two gate regions, two cathode regions and two resistor regions on both sides of the substrate in a rectangular channel stop region. In this case, each of the above-mentioned anode regions is close to the above-mentioned channel stopper region (that is, outside the channel stopper region), each of the above-mentioned gate regions is formed between each of the above-mentioned anode regions and the central side of the above-mentioned substrate, and each of the above-mentioned The cathode region is formed outside the light entrance region of the optical signal in the above-mentioned gate region. [0004] Furthermore, the bonding pad on t...
