Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a first terminal, a second terminal positioned away from the first terminal, a first resistive segment coupled between the first terminal and the second terminal, a third terminal positioned away from the first terminal and the second terminal, a second resistive segment coupled between the second terminal and third terminal, a first floating plate disposed physically proximate the first resistive segment and including a first end coupled to one of the first terminal and the second terminal, and a second floating plate disposed physically proximate the second resistive segment and including a first end coupled to one of the second terminal and the third terminal.
