摘要
Silicon carbide (SiC) based power semiconductor devices outperform their silicon counterparts in applications facing harsh environments where efficient and reliable operation is required over a wide ambient temperature (T-A) range. This paper presents the short circuit (SC) characteristics of a typical asymmetry trench (AT) SiC MOSFET. SC withstand time (SCWT) and associated failure mechanism of those SiC MOSFETs are systematically evaluated at T-A ranging from 200 to 600 K. It is found that the key factor limiting the SC capability of AT MOSFETs is the thermal-related gate-oxide degradation. Furthermore, the trench corner is considered to be the most vulnerable region leading to the gate leakage current.
