Abstract

See full text

Plural modular elementary semiconductor power components are respectively contained within plural semiconductor chip regions of a same semiconductor slice. A metallic layer covers a first surface of the semiconductor slice and is commonly connected to anode electrodes of the plural elementary power components. Plural space apart quadrangular metallic layer regions respectively cover the plural semiconductor chip regions on a second surface of the semiconductor slice and are respectively connected to cathode electrodes of the plural elementary power components. Plural first metallic tracks are spaced apart from and surround the respective plural metallic layer regions on the second surface of the semiconductor slice. Each respective first metallic track is connected to a control electrode of the elementary power component contained within the semiconductor chip regions surrounded by the respective first metallic track. Plural second metallic tracks extend spaced apart from and between the plural first metallic tracks to form a lattice configuration on the second surface of the semiconductor slice. Plural fuse elements, for selectively isolating defective elementary power components, are located on the second surface of the semiconductor slice and connect the first and second metallic tracks.
