Problems solved by technology

Although this method can improve chip-level current sharing to a certain extent, it cannot fundamentally solve the problem of uneven current sharing.
This is because a chip is composed of tens of thousands of cells connected in parallel, and only one gate resistor is connected in series inside the chip. There are still differences in the switching speed between cells, and there are still differences between cells. current sharing

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor devices, in particular to a power semiconductor chip and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In many application fields of power electronic devices, many power semiconductor chips (such as IGBT, MOSFET, etc.) are often connected in parallel to achieve the target power level. The parallel application of power semiconductor chips is very common, including the parallel connection of module level, substrate level and chip level. In addition, tens of thousands of cells inside each chip are also arranged in parallel. For each repeating unit connected in parallel, making it have a uniform current and the same switching speed is the best protection measure and the means to improve reliability. [0003] Currently, the most commonly used method is the figure 1 As shown, the grid resistor is connected in series on the substrate or substrate to control the switching speed of the substra...
