Discrete and integrated MOS power technologies

Abstract This paper presents a general overview of the major recent developments in MOS power technologies. These technologies have evolved in two main directions. First, towards devices that have resulted from standard MOS power components : either new designs for more performant structures or structures involving more complex electric functions. The second direction is the integration of monolithic circuits including both high-voltage or power MOS devices and low voltage control logic.
