    摘要: A high-concentration n-type buffer layer and a low-concentration n-type buffer layer are provided between a p-type collector layer and a high-resistance n-type base layer, and respective impurity concentrations of the low-concentration n-type buffer layer and the high-concentration n-type buffer layer are set so that concentrations of carriers that propagate through the low-concentration n-type buffer layer and the high-concentration n-type buffer layer are in excess of the respective impurity concentrations thereof in an ON state. Thus, an insulated gate bipolar transistor having excellent withstand voltage, ON-state voltage and turn-off characteristics is obtained.

    摘要: A pulse generation circuit which can be controlled to generate on-signals and off-signals simultaneously for use in testing the protection circuit of a power device's drive circuitry. The protection circuit prevents faulty operation due to dv/dt transient signals which can cause the S and R input signals to a set-reset flip-flop circuit to simultaneously be HI, resulting in an error condition. Protection circuit 26a has the structure as shown in FIG. 1. A pulse generation circuit, as shown in FIG. 3, can be used to provide simultaneous changes of logic value at B and C to test the protection circuit.

    摘要: A semiconductor device which allows an ON-state voltage to be lower than that of a conventional device and a method of manufacturing such a device. In this semiconductor device, a gate electrode is formed to have a planar area of its region covering a first base layer larger than that of its region covering a second base layer, thereby increasing a cathode short-circuit ratio of a cathode-shorted diode equivalent to this semiconductor device. As a result, a lower voltage than conventional ON-state can be obtained.

    摘要: A method of fabricating a MOS field effect semiconductor device having an LDD structure is described in which an insulating film is formed on a gate electrode and a layer of polycrystalline silicon, oxide, high melting point metal or a silicide of a high melting point metal is formed on a wafer and etched away by anisotropic RIE, except a portion thereof on a sidewall of the gate. With the resulting structure, degradation of the transconductance of the device due to injection of hot carriers is prevented. Also, the size of the device can be minimized without unduly increasing the resistances of the drain/source region, the gate electrode, and the contacts of the device.

    摘要: A dummy circuit (303) is basically configured in the same manner as level shift circuits (203a, 203b), but an HVNMOS (311) of the dummy circuit is always set at a non-conducting state. A mask circuit (403) removes noise in signals (S200a, S200b) outputted from the level shift circuits (203a, 203b), respectively, using a signal (S300) outputted from the dummy circuit (303). Control signals (S100a, S100b) include iterative pulses that are transmitted to S and R inputs of an RS flip-flop (502). PMOSs (215, 225) bring current paths (210, 220) into a non-conducting state in response to an output signal (S500) from the RS flip-flop (502) to thereby suspend one of the level shift circuits (203a, 203b).

    摘要: An ON-state voltage is reduced. A line of gate trenches 8 is formed on an n-type silicon layer (a SOI layer) 3 so as to divide a p-type base layer 4 and an n-type emitter layer 5. The gate trench 8 extends from the n-type emitter layer 5 toward a collector electrode 21. A gate electrode 10 is buried in the gate trench 8 with a gate insulation film 9 interposed therebetween. The gate electrode 10 is provided opposite to a vertical section of the p-type base layer 4. Therefore, a channel width can be kept great. Furthermore, a wide region of the n-type silicon layer 3 which is provided opposite to the gate trench 8 functions as an accumulation layer of a hole. As a result, the ON-state voltage can be reduced.
