Abstract:
In this work, we develop a dynamic RONtest bench for GaN HEMT based on two half-bridge pulse generating circuits, enabling versatile selection of soft switching (SSW) and hard switching (HSW) test, allowing long-duration test, and supporting both packaged large-area devices and on-wafer small-size devices. For packaged devices, under SSW test, Schottky-gate p-GaN HEMT (SG-HEMT) exhibit a bell-shaped dynamic RONand VDScurve, while the ohmic-gate p-GaN HEMT (GIT) and Si superjunction (SJ-) MOSFET exhibit stable dynamic RON. Under HSW test, the dynamic RONof SG-HEMT and GIT are both slightly higher than SSW test. The hard-switching energy (EHSW) is controlled by a capacitor CHSW. During 1-hour continuous SSW and HSW test, the dynamic RONof GaN HEMT increases gradually and saturates. The on-wafer device in this work is an active-passivation HEMT (AP-HEMT) with W G=10 μ m. The SSW dynamic RON of AP-HEMT, extracted with a delay time of ∼ 20 μ s, is comparable to that of the-state-of-the-art commercial GaN transistor using the same testing condition. © 2024 IEEE.
