SEMICONDUCTOR ARRANGEMENT WITH GUARD STRUCTURE

A semiconductor arrangement and an electronic circuit with a semiconductor arrangement are disclosed. The semiconductor arrangement includes: a semiconductor body having a first region of a first doping type, a second region of the first doping type, and a third region of a second doping type complementary to the first doping type; and a guard structure arranged in the third region between the first and second regions. The first and second regions are spaced apart from each other in a lateral direction of the semiconductor body, and the third region is arranged between the first and second regions. The guard structure includes a first guard region and a second guard region arranged next to each other in the first lateral direction. The first guard region includes a doped region of the second doping type. The second guard region includes a doped region of the first doping type.
