Journal ArticleDOI
Threshold voltage peculiarities and bias temperature instabilities of SiC MOSFETs
TL;DR: A new measure-stress-measure procedure for BTI evaluation of SiC MOSFETs is proposed which allows distinguishing between reversible threshold voltage hysteresis and more permanent threshold voltage drift (BTI).
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Performance and ruggedness of 1200V SiC — Trench — MOSFET
Dethard Peters,Ralf Siemieniec,Thomas Aichinger,Thomas Basler,Romain Esteve,Wolfgang Bergner,Daniel Kueck +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a novel SiC trench MOSFET concept, which is designed to balance low conduction losses with Si-IGBT-like reliability, and show that the favorable temperature behavior of the on-state resistance combined with a low sensitivity of the switching energies to temperature simplify the design-in.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding BTI in SiC MOSFETs and Its Impact on Circuit Operation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the capture and emission time constants of positive and negative charge trapped in the gate oxide and at the interface of SiC power MOSFETs as a function of gate bias.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Investigation of threshold voltage stability of SiC MOSFETs
Dethard Peters,Thomas Aichinger,Thomas Basler,Gerald Rescher,Katja Puschkarsky,Hans Reisinger +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, threshold voltage hysteresis effects, bias temperature instability effects (BTI), and their relevance for the switching behavior of silicon carbide MOSFETs are analyzed.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Understanding and modeling transient threshold voltage instabilities in SiC MOSFETs
TL;DR: This work investigates the capture- and emission-time constants of positive and negative charge trapped in the gate oxide and at the interface as a function of gate bias and temperature and presents a very accurate model for the short-term hysteresis during a bipolar AC period.
