Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to semiconductor elements. Background technique
[0002] In the past, LDMOS (Lateral Double Diffused Metal Oxide Semiconductor) was frequently used in power integrated circuits. LDMOS is a semiconductor device capable of switching large currents.
[0003] FIG. 8 is a circuit diagram of a general power switch circuit using LDMOS. The power switch circuit adopts a synchronous rectification power supply mode. The power supply of the high voltage Vcc is connected to the drain electrode of LDMOS1, and the ground GND is connected to the source electrode of LDMOS2. Between LDMOS1 and LDMOS2, current is supplied from node N to the load through a filter.
[0004] An input signal is supplied to gate electrodes of LDMOS1 and LDMOS2 through a control circuit. The control circuit controls the input IN1 of LDMOS1 and the input IN2 of LDMOS2 so that LDMOS1 and LDMOS2 are not turned on at the same time.
[0005] When LDMOS1 is in th...
