Abstract

An apparatus for suppressing oscillations is disclosed. The apparatus includes a unipolar power transistor and an RC buffer. The RC buffer has a capacitor between the polysilicon structure and the semiconductor substrate. The capacitor has a p-n junction. The RC buffer has a resistor between the source of the unipolar power transistor and the first layer forming the capacitor. The unipolar transistor and the RC buffer are coupled in parallel. The RC buffer and the unipolar power transistor are monolithically formed on a semiconductor substrate.

Description

technical field [0001] This disclosure relates to the field of suppressing oscillations within semiconductor devices. Background technique [0002] Various types of transistors such as Silicon Carbide Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (SiC MOSFETs) and others can be used for high power and high voltage range applications such as traction and wind energy applications. These types of applications may use high current and high power modules or connect modules in parallel. Operation of these transistors may result in relatively high commutation inductance, for example in the range of 20nH to 100nH per commutation path. If the load current in one of these transistors is turned off quickly, commutation oscillations may be triggered. Commutation oscillations may cause EMI and / or non-compliance with EMI limits. Such commutation oscillations are undesirable for applications utilizing high load currents. Contents of the invention [0003] This Summary is provide...
