Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of power semiconductor devices, in particular to an IGBT device with low noise and low switching loss characteristics. By introducing a low noise P + typeJFET source region 13, an N + type JFET gate region 14 and a P + type JFET gate region 15 into a discrete floating pbody region 8 of a conventional IGBT device, the present invention stores hole-enhanced conductance modulation when the device is turned on, drains holes quickly when the device is turned off, and reduces the turn-off time; At that same time, a half surround structure is formed in the gate region 14 of the JFET by the dielectric layer 10, the Miller capacitance Cgc of the device is reduced, the influence of the parasitic NPN on the effective gate voltage in the JFET structure issuppressed, and the switching time and the switching loss are reduced under the condition of ensuring low noise.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of power semiconductor devices, in particular to an IGBT device with low noise and low switching loss characteristics. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of rail transit, smart grid, wind power and other fields, insulated gate bipolar transistors (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor, IGBT) rely on the advantages of simple gate control, high input impedance, high current density, and low saturation voltage. It has become one of the mainstream power switching devices in the medium and high power range, and will continue to develop in the direction of high voltage and high current, low power loss, high operating temperature and high reliability. [0003] High-voltage IGBTs usually adopt a planar gate structure, which is used in high-reliability environments such as high-speed rail and power transmission. However, due to the parasitic JFET resistance of the planar-gate IGBT, compared with the...
