Abstract

PURPOSE:To decrease gate trigger currents, by stretching an emitter layer of the first SCR region onto a surface of a p emitter layer of the second SCR region so as to contact with an end portion of an electrode while surrounding a n-layer of the first SCR region. CONSTITUTION:An electrode 8 is made to be positive, an electrode 9 to be negative and a gate electrode 7 to be positive to the electrode 8. Gate currents flow through the electrode 8 through a P2-layer 3 from the electrode 7 at that time, and electrons are injected to the P2-layer 3 from a n2-layer 4 of a SCR region I and a n5-layer 10 of a SCR region II. Since the n5-layer 10 is formed so as to contact with an end portion of the electrode 8, the gate currents pass through the p2-layer 3 just under the n5-layer 10, thus efficiently injecting electrons. Since the n5-layer 10 is mounted at a portion, which opposes to a n3 emitter layer 5 of the SCR II, on a surface of the p2-layer 3, the electrons injected to the layer 3 from the layer 10 can efficiently contribute to the ignition of the SCR region II. Thus, gate trigger currents in this mode can be reduced as compared to conventional devices.
