Problems solved by technology

The biggest advantage of IGBT is that it can withstand the current impact no matter in the conduction state or in the short circuit state. Its disadvantage is that the internal resistance of the high-voltage IGBT is large, resulting in large conduction loss. Multiple in series, and low tolerance for overvoltage, overheating, impact resistance, anti-interference, etc.
The main characteristic of IGBT is low conduction loss, which can be used in high voltage field. However, in high voltage applications, the environmental conditions are harsh. In addition to excellent conduction characteristics, IGBT needs to have high reliability.

Abstract

The invention discloses an insulate gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) with a current carrier storage layer and an additional hole passage, and belongs to the technical field of semiconductor power devices. In the IGBT, an N-type current carrier storage layer (5) and a large P<+> tagma (4) structure are introduced on the basis of a conventional planar non-pouch-through IGBT. The N-type current carrier storage layer (5) improves a conductivity modulation effect close to an emitter and the large P<+> tagma (4) structure plays a role in providing an additional passage for a hole so that the latch-up resistance is improved. Due to the design of the N-type current carrier storage layer (5) and the large P<+> tagma (4), the flow path of a hole current of the conventional IGBT is optimized, so that a safety operation area of a device is enlarged and the sensitivity of latch current density to a temperature is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] An IGBT with a carrier storage layer and an extra hole path belongs to the technical field of semiconductor power devices. Background technique [0002] IGBT (Insulate Gate Bipolar Transistor) insulated gate bipolar transistor is a new type of power semiconductor device. It has become a new generation of mainstream products in the field of power electronics. It is a combination of MOS and bipolar devices with MOS input and bipolar output functions. Structurally, it is a high-power integrated device composed of thousands of repeating units (ie cells) and manufactured using large-scale integrated circuit technology and power device technology. [0003] IGBT not only has the advantages of high input impedance, low control power, simple driving circuit and high switching speed of MOSFET, but also has the advantages of high current density, low saturation voltage and strong current handling capacity of bipolar power transistor. Therefore, the three major...
