Reliability concern and design for the lateral insulator gate bipolar transistor based on SOI substrate
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, the reliability issues of the lateral insulator gate bipolar transistor based on SOI substrate (SOI-LIGBT), including the anode punch-through, the terminal early breakdown, the hot-carrier degradation and the latch-up failure, have been experimentally investigated and improved. The measurement results and the T-CAD simulations demonstrate that the proposed device owns higher reliability, which can be applied well as the output driver device of the power ICs. 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

Power SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator) devices have an inherent sandwich structure of MOS (MetalOxide-Semiconductor) gate which is very easy to suffer ESD (Electro-Static Discharge) overstress. To solve this reliability problem, studies on design and modification of a built-in self-anti-ESD diode for a preliminarily optimized high voltage SOI LIGBT (Lateral-Insulated-Gate-Bipolar-Transistor) were car...

In this paper, for the first time, the effect of the substrate doping of 22nm double-insulating UTBB silicon-on-insulator device on the switching performance and turn-on delay of the transistor is investigated. In UTBB devices, the substrate voltage is varied from positive to zero then negative voltages to trade-off transistor speed against the leakage current. Various circuit design procedures...
