DEFINITION

Classification: 257/288

Having insulated electrode (e.g., MOSFET, MOS diode):

(under subclass 213) Subject matter including an electrode which is electrically insulated from the active semiconductor region of the device (e.g., a metal oxide semiconductor insulated electrode).

(1) Note. Typically the insulated electrode is the control or gate electrode.
