A thyristor is disclosed which has a laminated structure of a first emitter layer of n.sup.+ conductivity type, a first base layer of p type, a second base layer of p.sup.- type, a second emitter layer of n type, and a second emitter layer of p.sup.+ type. The first base layer has a first exposed surface portion which is in lateral contact with the first emitter layer, and a second exposed surface portion which is in lateral contact with the second base layer. The second surface portion defines a layer portion of the second base layer which is positioned between the first base layer and the second emitter layer. An anode electrode is connected to said second emitter layer, whereas a cathode electrode is connected to the second base layer and the first emitter layer. A first gate electrode is formed on the first surface portion of the first base layer. A second gate electrode is insulatively disposed above the second surface portion of the first base layer to form a MOSFET together with the first base layer and the second emitter layer. The layer portion of the second base layer serves as a channel region of the MOSFET.

A thyristor with an insulated gate includes a p-type emitter layer, an n-type base layer, a p-type base layer, and an n-type emitter layer. A drain electrode contacting the p-type base layer is formed adjacent to one side of the n-type emitter layer. An n-type drain layer, which is short-circuited with the p-type base layer by the drain electrode, is formed. An n-type source layer is formed a predetermined distance away from the n-type drain layer. A turn-off insulated gate is formed between the n-type source layer and the n-type drain layer. A source electrode is connected to a cathode electrode. Thereby, turn-off capability of the thyristor can be improved.
摘要:
A wafer substrate structure has a P type epitaxial wafer layer. An N+ type region separation layer is formed on the wafer layer to define a first closed region and a second region neighboring thereto. Formed in the first region are a P- type layer and an N- type layer stacked thereon and serving as a high-resistance layer for forming the first element. An N- type layer serving as a high-resistance layer exists in the second region of the wafer layer. These high-resistance layers are defined by separating a single semiconductor layer by an N+ type diffused separation layer. Forming a high-voltage transistor as a power element in the first region to be PN junction-separated brings a "double PN junction separation" structure wherein the first region is electrically separated by a PN junction from the second region and the high-voltage transistor is also PN junction-separated in the first region.

摘要:
A turn-on/off driving technique for an insulated gate thyristor which has a first gate electrode insulatively provided above a first base layer and fuctioning as a gate of MOSFET, and a second gate electrode formed on the second base layer. To drive the turn-on of the thyristor, a first voltage for rendering the MOSFET conductive is applied to the first gate electrode, while substantially simultaneously a second voltage for producing forward biasing between the second base layer and a second emitter layer is applied to the second gate electrode. To turn-off drive the thyristor, a third voltage for reverse biasing between the second emitter layer and the second base layer to stop the operation of the thyristor is applied to the second gate, while the MOSFET is kept conductive. The thyristor starts turning off in response to the voltage application. At this time, charge carriers exhausted from the second emitter layer are allowed to flow into the first base layer through the channel region of the MOSFET, thereby suppressing the local concentration of the turn-off current in the thyristor.

摘要:
A thyristor with insulated gates includes turn-off and turn-on MOSFETs. The turn-on MOSFET has a turn-on gate employing a p-type base as a channel and extending over an n-type base and an n-type emitter. The turn-off MOSFET has n-type drain and source layers formed in a p-type base layer, and a turn-off gate extending over the drain and source layers. The n-type drain layer is short-circuited with the p-type base layer via a drain electrode. The drain electrode is formed near an n-type emitter layer. When the thyristor is to be turned off, the first voltage is applied to the turn-on gate, and the second voltage is applied to the turn-off gate while the first voltage is applied to the turn-on gate. After the application of the second voltage continues for a predetermined period of time, the application of the first voltage to the turn-on gate is stopped. With this operation, the thyristor can be turned off even with a large current.
