  • 오늘날 심각한 환경 오염과 에너지의 중요성으로 전력 반도체의 중요도가 지속적으로 높아지고 있다. 특히 wide band gap(WBG)소자 중 하나인 SiC-MOSFET은 우수한 고전압 특성을 가지고 있어 그 중요도가 매우 높다. 하지만 SiC-MOSFET의 전기적 특성이 열에 민감하기 때문에 패키지를 통한 열 관리가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 기존 전력 반도체에서 사용하는 direct bonded copper(DBC) 기판 방식이 아닌 insulated metal substrate(IMS) 방식을 제안한다. IMS는 DBC에 비해 공정이 쉬우며 coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE)가 높아서 비용과 신뢰성 측면에서 우수하다. IMS의 절연층인 dielectric film의 열전도도가 낮은 문제가 있지만 매우 얇은 두께로 공정이 가능하기 때문에 낮은 열 전도도를 충분히 극복할 수 있다. 이를 확인하기 위해서 이번 연구에서는 electric-thermal co-simulation을 수행하였으며 검증을 위해 DBC 기판과 IMS를 제작하여 실험하였다.

  • The performance of high power LEDs highly depends on the junction temperature. Operating at high junction temperature causes elevation of the overall thermal resistance which causes degradation of light intensity and lifetime. Thus, appropriate thermal management is critical for LED packaging. The main goal of this research is to improve thermal resistance by optimizing and comparing nano-pore silicon-based thermal substrate to insulated metal substrate and direct bonded copper thermal substrate. The thermal resistance of the packages are evaluated using computation fluid dynamic approach for 1 W single chip LED module.

  • This paper introduces a new Motion-$SPM^{TM}$ (Smart Power Modules) module in Single In-line Package (SIP), which is a fully optimized intelligent integrated IGBT inverter module for up to 1kW low power motor drive applications. This module offers a sophisticated, integrated solution and tremendous design flexibility. It also takes advantage of pliability for the arrangement of heat-sink due to two types of lead forms. It comes to be realized by employing non-punch-through (NPT) IGBT with a fast recovery diode and highly integrated building block, which features built-in HVICs and a gate driver that offers more simplicity and compactness leading to reduced costs and high reliability of the entire system. This module also provides technical advantages such as the optimized cost effective thermal performances through IMS (Insulated Metal Substrate), the high latch immunity. This paper provides an overall description of the Motion-$SPM^{TM}$ in SIP as well as actual application issues such as electrical characteristics, thermal performance, circuit configurations and power ratings.
