Abstract
One embodiment of an integrated circuit includes a semiconductor body. In the semiconductor body a first trench region extends into the semiconductor body from a first surface. The integrated circuit further includes a diode including an anode region and a cathode region. One of the anode region and the cathode region is at least partly arranged in the first trench region. The other one of the anode region and the cathode region includes a first semiconductor region adjoining the one of the anode region and the cathode region from outside of the first trench region.
