| Abstract |
In this paper a Bipolar- Power MOSFET cascode monolithic device, realized in ST-SGS Thomson VIPowerâ„¢ (Vertical Intelligent Power) Technology called M3, is presented. The basic device features a three-stage deep-base NPN BJT and a vertical Power MOSFET, realized inside the emitter of the trilinton output stage itself, for emitter switching. The paper starts with a survey of the main characteristics of the SGS-Thomson Vertical Intelligent Power technology. Then the switching performance of the device are analyzed in Hard-Switching and Soft-Switching Mode. Finally the device performance in a DC-DC converter are tested. |
