전류 제한 능력을 갖는 전력 MOSFET
A Power MOSFET with Self Current Limiting Capability
초록
A new vertical power MOSFET with over-current protection capability is proposed. The MOSFET consists of main power MOSFET cell, sensing MOSFET cell and lateral npn bipolar transistor. The proposed MOSFET may be fabricated by a conventional DMOS process without any additional fabrication step. Overcurrent state is sensed by the newly designed lateral bipolar transistor. Mixed-mode simulations proved that the overcurrent protection is achieved by the proposed MOSFET successfully with a small protection area less than 0.2 % of the total die area.
