Embodiment Construction

[0036] figure 1 The turn-off power semiconductor device according to the first embodiment of the invention shown in cross section is a reverse conducting integrated gate commutated thyristor (RC-IGCT) 1 comprising a wafer 10 , a conductive gate ring 60 and a rubber ring 70 . as in Figure 2A (which shows along the Figure 2BAs can best be seen in the cross-section of the wafer 10 in line AA' in ), the wafer 10 has a first main side 11 and a second main side 12, which are parallel to the first main side 11 and extend laterally. The wafer comprises an active region 16 (inner region) and a termination region (edge ​​region) 15 surrounding the active region 16 . In the active region 16 of the wafer 10 a plurality of thyristor cells 2 and a single freewheeling diode 3 are provided between the first main side 11 and the second main side 12 .

[0037] Each thyristor cell 2 comprises, from the first main side 11 to the second main side 12 of the wafer 10, a first cathode electrode ...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a turn-off power semiconductor device (1) having a wafer (10) with an active region and a termination region surrounding the active region, a rubber ring (70) as an edge passivation for the wafer (10) and a gate ring (60) placed on a ring-shaped gate contact (40) on the termination region for contacting the gate electrodes of at least one thyristor cell formed in the active region of the wafer. In the turn-off power semiconductor device (1) of the invention, the outer circumferential surface of the gate ring is in contact with the rubber ring to define the inner border of the rubber ring (70). In the invention the area consumed by the ring-shaped gate contact (40) on the termination or edge region can be minimized. The upper surface of the gate ring (60) and the upper surface of the rubber ring (70) form a continuous surface extending in a plane parallel to the first main side (11) of the wafer (10). In a method for manufacturing the device, the gate ring (60) is used as an inner sidewall of a mold for molding the rubber ring (70).

Description
