  • Power MOSFET operate voltage-driven devices, design to control the large power switching device for power supply, converter, motor control, etc. We have optimal designed planar and trench gate power MOSFET for high breakdown voltage and low on resistance. When we have designed $6,580{\mu}m{\times}5,680{\mu}m$ of chip size and 20 A current, on resistance of trench gate power MOSFET was low than planar gate power MOSFET. The on state voltage of trench gate power MOSFET was improved from 4.35 V to 3.7 V. At the same time, we have designed unified field limit ring for trench gate power MOFET. It is Junction Termination Edge type. As a result, we have obtained chip shrink effect and low on resistance because conventional field limit ring was convert to unify.

  • The large scale industry needs high voltage converters. Therefore series connection of power semiconductor devices is necessary. It is important to prevent the overvoltage from being induced across a device above ratings by the proper voltage balancing in the field of IGBT series connection. In addition, the overvoltage induced by a stray inductance has to be limited in the high power circuit. This paper proposes a new gate control scheme which can balance the voltage properly and limit the overshoot by controlling the slope of collector voltage under the turn-off transient in the series connected IGBTs. The proposed gate control scheme which senses the collector voltage and controls the gate signal actively limits the overvoltage. The new series connected IGBT gate driver is made and its validity is verified by the experimental results in the series connected IGBT circuit.

  • This paper presents a comprehensive study on threshold voltage $(V_{th})$ control of organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) with dual-gate structure. The fabrication of dual-gate pentacene OTFTs using plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposited (PEALD) 150 nm thick $Al_{2}O_{3}$ as a bottom gate dielectric and 300 nm thick parylene or PEALD 200 nm thick $Al_{2}O_{3}$ as both a top gate dielectric and a passivation layer was investigated. The $V_{th}$ of OTFT with 300 nm thick parylene as a top gate dielectric was changed from 4.7 V to 1.3 V and that with PEALD 200 nm thick $Al_{2}O_{3}$ as a top gate dielectric was changed from 1.95 V to -9.8 V when the voltage bias of top gate electrode was changed from -10 V to 10 V. The change of $V_{th}$ of OTFT with dual-gate structure was successfully investigated by an analysis of electrostatic potential.

  • A continuous, explicit drain-current equation for short-channel double-gate (DG) MOSFETs has been derived based on the explicit surface potential equation. The model is physically derived from Poisson's equation in each region of operation and adopted in the unified regional approach. The proposed model has been verified with numerical solutions, physically scalable with channel length and gate/oxide materials as well as oxide/channel thicknesses.

Over the 3000 gates are performed to control print image data signals and relative peripheral hardwares. The proposed gate array has TPH control circuit, print control and step motor drive, and print image data control, decoder output control parts. This TPH controller will be a good application to FAX or label printer and barcode printers.

  • There generally exists a large variation in the thereshold voltages of the flash EEPROM cells after they are erased by using th fowler-nordheim tunneling, thereby getting some cells to be overeased. If the overerased cells are programmed with the conventional one-step programming scheme where an 12-13V pulse with the duration of 100.mu.S is applie don the control gate for the programming, they can suffer from the significant degradation of the reliability of the gate oxide. A two-step programming schem, where an 8/12 V pulse with a duration of 50.mu.S for each voltage is applied on the control gate for the programming, has been studied to solve the problem. The experimental results hav eshown that there is little difference in the programming characteristics between those two schemes, whereas the degradation of the gate oxide due to the programming can be significantly reduced with the two-step programming scheme compared to that with the one-step programming scheme. This is possibly because the positive charge stored in the floating gate of the overerased cells is compensate dwith the electrons injected into the floating gate while the 8V pulse is applied on the control gate, which leaves the overerased cells in the normally erased state after the duration of the 8V pulse.

  • Multiple-control Toffoli(MCT) gates are macro-level multiple-valued gates needing quantum technology dependent primitive gates, and have been used in Galois Field sum-of-product (GFSOP) based synthesis of quantum logic circuit. Reversible logic is very important in quantum computing for low-power circuit design. This paper presents a reversible GF4 multiplier at first, and GF4 multiplier based quaternary MCT gate realization is also proposed. In the comparisons of MCT gate realization, we show the proposed MCT gate can reduce considerably primitive gates and delays in contrast to the composite one of the smaller MCT gates in proportion to the multiple-control input increase.

  • In this work, the electrical characteristics of organic thin film transistors with the surface-treated organic gate insulators have been studied. For the surface treatment, the simple rubbing technique was used. The field effect mobilities of the devices with PVP gate insulator was improved about four times as high as those of TFTs without the insulator surface treatment.

  • A fast switching gate driver suitable for high performance self resonant electronic ballasts is presented. The proposed gate driver has negligible switching loss and driving loss owing to pnpn structure and zero voltage switching( ZVS ); moreover, the gate driver has frequency control capability. Therefore, a self resonant inverter using proposed gate driver can operate as external exciting resonant inverters. The experiments confirm that the proposed gate driver perform the desired operations over full power control range for 40W fluorescent lamp electronic ballast.
