Abstract
A semiconductor component (10) is proposed in which a control resistance element (NTC) is provided in electrical contact between a control region (G) for setting operating properties and a first input/output region (S), the control resistance element (NTC) having an operating temperature range in which the nonreactive resistance falls monotonically as the operating temperature increases.
