SBDs with a trench MOS structure provide lower VF than planar types and enable higher efficiency in rectification applications.

Key Points: 
  • SBDs with a trench MOS structure provide lower VF than planar types and enable higher efficiency in rectification applications.
  • One drawback of trench MOS structures, however, is that they typically feature worse trr than planar topologies, resulting in higher power loss when used for switching.
  • Expanding on the four existing conventional SBD lineups optimized for a variety of requirements, the YQ series is ROHM’s first to adopt a trench MOS structure.
  • The trench MOS structure is created by forming a trench using polysilicon in the epitaxial wafer layer to mitigate electric field concentration.
