DEFINITION

Classification: 257/372

With means to prevent latchup or parasitic conduction channels:

(under subclass 369) Subject matter including means to prevent conduction between regions of complementary IGFETs which form a (parasitic) regenerative structure which remains ON in the absence of a triggering signal.

(1) Note. For a definition of the regenerative structure of this subclass type, see subclass 107.
