摘要:
The differential amplifier of a comparator circuit includes first and second n-type MOSFETs for receiving an input signal, first and second p-type MOSFETs of a current mirror circuit, and a third n-type MOSFET of a current source circuit. The output stage includes a third p-type MOSFET for transmitting a signal, and a fourth n-type MOSFET of the current source circuit. The differential amplifier further includes fifth and sixth n-type MOSFETs respectively series-connected to the first and second n-type MOSFETs. The output stage further includes a seventh n-type MOSFET series-connected to the fourth n-type MOSFET. The gates of the fifth, sixth, and seventh n-type MOSFETs are connected to voltage bias circuits. The fifth, sixth, and seventh n-type MOSFETs suppress variations in voltage at an output node caused by poor saturation characteristics of the first, second, and fourth main n-type MOSFETs.

In an IGBT, an n buffer layer is formed under an n− high resistance layer in which a MOS gate structure is formed. An n+ buffer layer is formed between the n buffer layer and a p+ drain layer. Since the p+ drain layer is doped at a low dose, the efficiency of carrier injection can be reduced and a high-speed operation is possible without lifetime control. Since no lifetime control is performed, the on-state voltage can be low. Since the n buffer layer does not immediately stop the extension of the depletion layer during a turn-off period, oscillation of the current and voltage is prevented. The n+ buffer layer maintains a sufficient withstand voltage when a reverse bias is applied.

An insulated gate semiconductor device includes a first base layer of a first conduction type; a second base layer of a second conduction type formed on a first surface of the first base layer; a source layer of the first conduction type selectively formed in a surface region of the second base layer; a drain layer of the second conduction type formed on a second surface of the first base layer opposite from said first surface; and a gate electrode insulated from the source layer, the first base layer and the second base layer and forming in the second base layer a channel electrically connecting between the source layer and the first base layer, wherein the voltage transiently applied to the device is larger than the static breakdown voltage between the source and the drain when a rated current is turned off under a condition, in which condition the device is connected to an inductance load without using a protective circuit.
摘要:
A negative buffer layer and a positive collector layer are formed on a side of one surface of a semiconductor substrate. The positive collector layer is set to have a low dose amount and set shallow so that a low injection efficiency emitter structure is realized. Break down voltage of a power device is controlled by a thickness of a drift layer. A positive base layer, a negative emitter layer and a positive base contact layer are formed on a side of the other surface of the semiconductor substrate. A negative low resistant layer reduces a junction FET effect. An emitter electrode comes into contact with the negative emitter layer and the positive base contact layer. A collector electrode comes into contact with the positive collector layer. A gate electrode is formed on a gate insulating film above a channel region on a surface portion of the positive base layer.

A sub-gate electrode is arranged to face, through a gate insulating film, a surface of a first p-type base layer which is interposed between a first n-type source layer and an n-type drift layer, and a surface of a second p-type base layer which is interposed between a second n-type source layer and the n-type drift layer and faces the first p-type base layer. A main gate electrode is arranged to face, through a gate insulating film, a surface of the second p-type base layer which is interposed between the second n-type source layer and the n-type drift layer and does not face the first p-type base layer. Three n-type MOSFETs are constructed such that one n-type channel is to be formed in the first p-type base layer and two n-type channels are to be formed in the second p-type base layer. The three channels are to be formed, so that the channel width is effectively enlarged and the current density is increased. The second p-type base layer has a length of 10 .mu.m or less in the drifting direction.

摘要:
An IGBT has a punch-through structure including an n+ buffer layer. It includes a p− low concentration layer formed between the n+ buffer layer and a p+ drain layer. Owing to the low concentration layer, the drain current decreases to zero gradually, not rapidly, when the IGBT is turned off.
