Semiconductor Device
First Claim
1. A semiconductor device comprising a semiconductor body having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the semiconductor body comprising:
- a load current component comprising a load current transistor area; and
a sensor component comprising a sensor transistor area,wherein the sensor transistor area comprises first and third transistor area parts differing from a second transistor area part between the first and the third transistor area parts by a sensor transistor area element being absent in the second transistor area part,wherein the second transistor area part is electrically disconnected from a parallel connection of the first and the third transistor area parts by the sensor transistor area element being absent in the second transistor area part.

Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor body having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The semiconductor body includes a load current component having a load current transistor area and a sensor component including a sensor transistor area. The sensor transistor area has first and third transistor area parts differing from a second transistor area part between the first and third transistor area parts by a sensor transistor area element being absent in the second transistor area part. The second transistor area part is electrically disconnected from a parallel connection of the first and third transistor area parts by the sensor transistor area element being absent in the second transistor area part.
