Physical design guidelines to minimize area-specific ON-resistance for rated ON-current and breakdown voltage of GaN power HEMTs
SEMICONDUCTOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY(2023)
摘要
In this article, we report on the development of an analytical model to estimate area-specific ON-state resistance (R (ds,on)) of GaN-based power high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) using rated device specifications-ON-state drain current (I (ON)) and maximum operating drain-to-source voltage (V (DSO))-as input parameters. The rated I (ON) and V (DSO) are considered as fractions k and S, of the maximum possible drain current (I (DS,max)) and breakdown voltage (V (BR)), respectively, deliverable by the power device. The developed model is utilized to obtain the optimal physical design space parameters for a comb-like power HEMT design. Due consideration has been given to the trade-off between R (ds,on) and area-specific R (ds,on) of the transistor, device processing limitations for all the physical device parameters. The developed model has been validated with experimental results of prior literature. Our calculations impose a lower-bound for the best possible R (ds,on) as well as the area-specific on-resistance product (R (ds,on) x AA) that can be obtained for a given starting channel sheet resistance in the comb architecture for a desired I (ON) - V (DSO) rating.
