のエミッタ・ベース間に挿入する方法が知られている。In the conventional Darlington connection circuit configured in this way, when the base and emitter are reversely connected (earthed) during switching operation (from ON to oyy), Trl
is in the OFF state, and no current flows between the base and emitter of Trt, so the carriers accumulated in the base region of Tr2 are released only gradually through the resistor R1 to the base electrode. When R1 is large, the carrier release rate is low and the accumulated carriers remain in the base region for a relatively long time. As a result, the switching speed becomes slow. In order to improve the above drawback, diode D2 is connected to Txl as shown in Figure 3.
There is a known method of inserting it between the emitter and base of.

面で、必ずしも十分とはいえない。However, if this diode D2 is integrated into a single semiconductor substrate like other circuit elements, this would result in the formation of a parasitic transistor. It is necessary to configure the circuit by making connections, and therefore, such a circuit configuration is not necessarily sufficient in terms of production, mass productivity, and reliability of the circuit device.

定したグラフが第4図すに相当する。As shown in FIG. 4, the present invention, by suppressing the active impurity concentration in the region 14 to be lower than the active impurity concentration in the region 13, allows the current amplification factor to be reduced even in the PIP parasitic transistor structure as described above. This concentration distribution is made extremely small so that its transistor effect can be ignored.
-" This can be obtained by suppressing the impurity concentration in region 14 to a slightly higher level than the surface concentration during impurity evaporation. For example, if the surface concentration of diffused impurity in region 13 is 1.5x
In the case of 1o/i, the impurity concentration of region 14 is reduced to 3 during deposition.
.. After the diffusion heat treatment, the impurity surface concentration of the region 14 is set to 0.times.10/cd. OX 1 o/c
It becomes tli. A graph obtained by measuring such an impurity diffusion profile corresponds to FIG.
