    摘要: An RC IGBT includes: an active region with separate IGBT and diode sections; a semiconductor body forming a part of the active region; a first load terminal and control terminal at a first side of the body and a second load terminal at a second side, the control terminal including a control terminal finger that laterally overlaps, in the active region, with the diode section. Control trenches extending into the semiconductor body along a vertical direction have a control trench electrode electrically connected to the control terminal for controlling a load current between the load terminals in the IGBT section. At least one control trench extends into both IGBT and diode sections. The electrical connection between the control trench electrode of that control trench and the control terminal is established at least based on an electrically conductive member arranged, in the diode section, in contact with the control terminal finger.

    摘要: A power semiconductor device includes an active region and an edge termination region surrounding the active region. A field plate structure arranged around the active region includes at least one electrically conductive track electrically connected to a first potential of a first load terminal at a first joint and, at a second joint, electrically connected to a second potential of a second load terminal. The track forms at least n crossings, wherein n is greater 5, with a straight virtual line that extends from the active region towards an edge of the edge termination region. The difference in potential between adjacent two crossings increases in at least 50% of the length of the virtual line, and/or the difference in potential within, with respect to the active region, the first 20% of the length of virtual line is less than 10% of the total difference in potential along the virtual line.
