E-mode p-FET-bridge HEMT: Toward high VTH , low reverse-conduction loss and enhanced stability
2021 IEEE 14th International Conference on ASIC (ASICON)(2021)
摘要
A novel p-GaN gate topology is proposed to simultaneously achieve high threshold voltage (V
TH
), low reverse-conduction loss, and enhanced V
TH
stability in E-mode p-GaN gate HEMT. The proposed gate structure consists of a conventional Schottky-type p-GaN gate and a normally-on p-FET bridge connecting source and gate. By modulating the V
TH
of the p-FET, a wide-range positive V
TH
can be achieved without suffering subthreshold voltage degradation. Owing to the well-grounded p-GaN through the normally-on p-channel, "floating p-GaN layer" is eliminated, and stable V
TH
can be achieved. In addition, the normally-on p-FET bridge can intrinsically decouple the reverse-conduction turn-on voltage (V
RT
) from the forward threshold voltage (V
TH
) without any area sacrifice, which enables separate engineering of V
RT
and V
TH
so that low-loss reverse conduction and high threshold voltage can be simultaneously realized.
