Abstract

A generator device for the voltage supply of a motor vehicle is equipped with at least one rectifying element for rectifying an alternating voltage provided by a generator. The rectifying element has an n-channel MOS field-effect transistor in which the gate, the body area, and the source area are electrically fixedly connected to one another and in which the drain area is used as a cathode.
