Abstract

Provided is a stabilizing circuit structure using a sense field effect transistor (sense-FET). A power semiconductor module includes a depletion-mode field effect transistor (D-mode FET) and the sense FET that has same structure as the D-mode FET and varies in area. Also the power semiconductor module includes not only an enhancement-mode field effect transistor (E-mode FET), but also the stabilizing circuit including circuit elements such as a resistor, a capacitor, an inductor, or a diode.
