Analyze the Impact of Surface Defect Dot on Short Circuit Phenomena in SiC Devices

Learn How STMicroelectronics Silicon Carbide (SiC) Research Team uses Silvaco TCAD to Analyze the Impact of Surface Defect Dot on Short Circuit Phenomena in SiC Devices During SiC device switching operations, it is possible that devices could be reaching abnormal overload conditions, which is why some applications require “robustness” specifications (e.g., Short Circuit and UIS… Analyze the Impact of Surface Defect Dot on Short Circuit Phenomena in SiC Devices

Power Devices SPICE Modeling for Si, GaN and SiC Technologies

We start by examining the different technologies used in the manufacturing of power devices, including Si, GaN, and SiC, considering their respective particularities and advantages. We will then analyze various approaches to the SPICE modeling of power devices, including compact models and macromodels. A significant portion of our presentation will be dedicated to the topic… Power Devices SPICE Modeling for Si, GaN and SiC Technologies
