Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004077573A2] The invention relates to a semiconductor diode, an electronic component and to a voltage source inverter. According to the invention, the semiconductor diode having at least one pn-transition can be switched between a first state and a second state. In comparison to the first state, the second state has a greater on-state resistance and a smaller accumulated charge, and the pn-transition is capable of blocking both in the first state as well as in the second state with at least one predetermined blocking ability. An MOS-controlled diode is hereby obtained in which the transition from the on-state to the blocking state is simplified and is thus not critical with regard to the temporal sequence of the control pulses.
