A numerical investigation of electrical and thermal properties of a lateral trench field-plate (TFP) LDMOS is proposed. Beside the advantage in terms of specific onresistance (RSP) vs. breakdown voltage (VBD) trade-off, achieved with a proper optimization of the geometrical and doping parameters, the use of deep trenches is discussed here with particular attention to their impact on the electrical safeoperating area (SOA), hot-carrier stress (HCS) reliability, selfheating effects (SHE) and thermal SOA.

Abstract
A numerical investigation of electrical and thermal properties of a lateral trench field-plate (TFP) LDMOS is proposed. Beside the advantage in terms of specific onresistance (RSP) vs. breakdown voltage (VBD) trade-off, achieved with a proper optimization of the geometrical and doping parameters, the use of deep trenches is discussed here with particular attention to their impact on the electrical safeoperating area (SOA), hot-carrier stress (HCS) reliability, selfheating effects (SHE) and thermal SOA.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
