The semiconductor device comprises two portions, of an isolated p-doped region which are separated by an N-doped region. Two p-doped regions are provided within the two portions. The p-dopant concentration of the two-doped region is higher than the p-dopant concentration of the isolated p-doped region. A first electrical contact is connected only via a highly doped p-contact region to the first p-doped region and a second electrical contact is connected only via another highly doped p-contact region to the second p-doped region.

    摘要: A full bridge rectifier includes four bipolar transistors, each of which has an associated parallel diode. A first pair of inductors provides inductive current splitting and thereby provides base current to/from one pair of the bipolar transistors so that the collector-to-emitter voltages of the bipolar transistors are low. A second pair of inductors similarly provides inductive current splitting to provide base current to/from the other pair of bipolar transistors. In one embodiment, all components are provided in a four terminal full bridge rectifier module. The module can be used as a drop-in replacement for a conventional four terminal full bridge diode rectifier. When current flows through the rectifier module, however, the voltage drop across the module is less than one volt. Due to the reduced low voltage drop, power loss in the rectifier module is reduced as compared to power loss in a conventional full bridge diode rectifier.

    摘要: In conventional mesa-type npn bipolar transistors, the improvement of a current gain and the miniaturization of the transistor have been unachievable simultaneously as a result of a trade-off being present between lateral diffusion and recombination of the electrons which have been injected from an emitter layer into a base layer, and a high-density base contact region—emitter mesa distance. In contrast to the above, the present invention is provided as follows: The gradient of acceptor density in the depth direction of a base layer is greater at the edge of an emitter layer than at the edge of a collector layer. Also, the distance between a first mesa structure including the emitter layer and the base layer, and a second mesa structure including the base layer and the collector layer, is controlled to range from 3 μm to 9 μm. In addition, in order for the above to be implemented with high controllability, the base layer is formed of a first p-type base layer having an acceptor of uniform density, and a second p-type base layer whose density is greater than the uniform acceptor density of the first base layer while having a gradient in the depth direction of the second base layer. These features produce the advantageous effect that it is possible to provide a high-temperature adaptable, power-switching bipolar transistor that ensures a current gain high enough for practical use and is suitable for miniaturization.
