This webinar presents a comprehensive methodology for the design and optimization of a 1200V Silicon Carbide (SiC) Double-Diffused Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (DMOS FET) utilizing Silvaco's TCAD platform. Adhering to industry best practices, the construction of an accurate digital twin is also presented, ensuring conformity to real-world performance characteristics. Moreover, we outline strategies to streamline simulation workflows, emphasizing techniques to boost design efficiency and productivity.

In parallel, this webinar explores the transformative impact of Machine Learning (ML) on traditional device design practices. By harnessing ML algorithms, a fundamental shift occurs in the approach towards device design, enabling process and device engineers to extract insights from vast datasets, optimize performance, and expedite the design iteration process.

Additionally, the necessity of incorporating compact modeling into the design flow is underscored. Compact modeling serves as a crucial component in capturing device behavior accurately, enabling efficient circuit-level simulations and facilitating rapid prototyping of devices. The integration of compact modeling enhances the design process, facilitating a more holistic understanding of device behavior and performance characteristics.

Through the integration of TCAD, simulation optimization, ML techniques, and compact modeling, this webinar demonstrates a synergistic approach towards device design, fostering innovation, precision, and efficiency.

This Virtual Webinar is from 10:00-11:00am PT.

While silicon carbide (SiC) has long been known for its superior properties for power device manufacturing, economical high-volume production has been hard to achieve. Small substrates, high cost, and challenging manufacturing infrastructure have limited the reach of this enabling technology. With the advent of larger substrates, however, the outlook for SiC is ever brighter and, shall we say, more powerful?
From the building of these larger substrates to the development of equipment designed for SiC processing, the semiconductor industry has challenges ahead. In this webinar, we will explore these aspects of growing and maturing the SiC supply chain from the materials and equipment perspective.

And yes, we’ve got a solution for that.

MEMS devices have become well established as critical components in a wide range of everyday applications. Accelerometers and gyroscopes improve safety in automotive applications, RF filters enable wireless connectivity in mobile phones, and MEMS microphones are at the heart of voice control technologies that connect us to an ever-increasing range of smart, consumer products.

Developers are now looking to the next generation of MEMS devices that will enable new applications and improve the performance of existing solutions. Capacitive based MEMS devices have proven to be highly successful, but after significant improvements of both design and manufacturing it is becoming increasingly difficult to improve their performance. To overcome this challenge, designers are looking to Piezoelectric based MEMS devices that can offer a paradigm shift in capability.

SiC—Silicon Carbide Webinar #3: Bidirectional SiC and GaN Switch Technology

There are numerous mass volume power applications where it is necessary to control the flow of bidirectional power, including electric vehicles (vehicle to grid, vehicle to home, and vehicle to vehicle), distributed and grid-tie power systems using regenerated energy and/or energy storage components, and solid-state circuit breaker protection. Silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) based bidirectional power switches can enable these applications with their compelling advantages of high efficiency, high blocking voltage capability, and low system weight and volume.  In particular, monolithic switches that allow for bidirectional symmetric conduction and voltage blocking with a chip area close to that of a similarly rated unidirectional switch are ideally suited to fuel a revolution in power electronics technology. Today, monolithic bidirectional (MBD) power semiconductor switches are not commercially available. Instead, back-to-back (anti-series) connection schemes of unidirectional power MOSFETs or IGBTs are typically used, resulting in a 4X penalty in chip area and high cost. However, various types of SiC and GaN bidirectional concepts are being investigated including bonded-wafer bidirectional IGBTs, monolithic dual-gate bidirectional GaN switches, and monolithic back-to-back connected SiC MOSFETs and JFETs.

In this presentation, the semiconductor technology of SiC and GaN bidirectional switches will be reviewed including their operating principles, and their lateral and vertical geometry configurations. The performance advantages of MBD switches will be highlighted. Promising MBD devices reported to date will be analyzed, and the key bidirectional switch applications of solid-state circuit breakers and current-source-inverters will be discussed. As SiC and GaN devices approach mass commercialization propelled by insertion in electric vehicles and consumer electronics, respectively, fabrication of SiC/GaN MBD switches is becoming economically viable enabling their wide adoption in key volume applications.
