Power semiconductor device having cells with channel regions of different conductivity types
Abstract:
A power semiconductor device includes a semiconductor body coupled to first and second load terminal structures, first and second cells electrically connected to the first load terminal structure and to a drift region, the drift region having a first conductivity type; a first mesa in the first cell and including: a port region electrically connected to the first load terminal structure, and a channel region coupled to the drift region; a second mesa in the second cell and including: a port region of the opposite conductivity type and electrically connected to the first load terminal structure, and a channel region coupled to the drift region. Each mesa is spatially confined, in a direction perpendicular to a direction of the load current within the respective mesa, by an insulation structure. The insulation structure houses a control electrode structure, and a guidance electrode arranged between the mesas.
