摘要:
A novel SOI-LIGBT integrating a Double Selfdriving MOSFET (DSM) is proposed. The DSM consists of a Self-Biased P-MOS (SBP) with a shorted main gate and a Self-Biased N-MOS (SBN) with a shorted auxiliary gate. These components are designed to function without additional gate signals, and they are driven automatically by the operating state of the LIGBT. During forward conduction, the SBP (VGS,P > Vthp) is turned off, whereas the SBN gradually turns on as the VCE increases. The P-buried substrate of SBN creates a potential barrier for electron carriers, effectively eliminating the snapback effect. During reverse conduction, the SBP (VGS,P Vthn) are reactivated to extract excess carriers. Consequently, the DSM-LIGBT achieves a superior tradeoff between VON and EOFF. At VON = 1.22 V, the EOFF is reduced by 30%, 30.32%, and 68.23% compared with SBM-LIGBT, TBSA-LIGBT, and SSA-LIGBT, respectively. © 2025 IEEE.
