ROHM’s New SBDs: Achieving Class-Leading* Reverse Recovery Time with 100V Breakdown Voltage by Adopting a Trench MOS Structure that Significantly Improves VF-IR Trade-Off

　　ROHM has developed 100V breakdown Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) that deliver industry-leading reverse recovery time (trr) for power supply and protection circuits in automotive, industrial, and consumer applications.　　Although numerous types of diodes exist, highly efficient SBDs are increasingly being used inside a variety of applications. Particularly SBDs with a trench MOS structure that provide lower VF than planar types 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.　　In response, ROHM developed a new series utilizing a proprietary trench MOS structure that simultaneously reduces both VF and IR (which are in a trade-off relationship) while also achieving class-leading trr.　　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 proprietary design achieves class-leading trr of 15ns that reduces trr loss by approx. 37% and overall switching loss by approx. 26% over general trench-type MOS products, contributing to lower application power consumption. The new structure also improves both VF and IR loss compared to conventional planar type SBDs. This results in lower power loss when used in forward bias applications such as rectification, while also providing less risk of thermal runaway which is a major concern with SBDs. As such, they are ideal for sets requiring high-speed switching, such as drive circuits for automotive LED headlamps and DC-DC converters in xEVs that are prone to generate heat.　　Going forward, ROHM will strive to further improve the quality of its semiconductor devices, from low to high voltages, while strengthening its expansive lineup to further reduce power consumption and achieve greater miniaturization.　　SBD Trench MOS StructureThe trench MOS structure is created by forming a trench using polysilicon in the epitaxial wafer layer to mitigate electric field concentration. This reduces the resistance of the epitaxial wafer layer, achieving lower VF when applying voltage in the forward direction. At the same time, during reverse bias the electric field concentration is minimized, significantly decreasing IR. As a result, the YQ series improves VF and IR by approx. 7% and 82%, respectively, compared to conventional products.　　And unlike with typical trench MOS structures where trr is worse than planar types due to larger parasitic capacitance (resistance component in the device), the YQ series achieves an industry-leading trr of 15ns by adopting a unique structural design. This allows switching losses to be reduced by approx. 26%, contributing to lower application power consumption.　　Application Examples• Automotive LED headlamps • xEV DC-DC converters • Power supplies for industrial equipment　　• Lighting　　☆: Under development　　* The TO-277GE package products released and sold by online distributors this time are rated for car infotainment and body systems. For each part number, we are preparing grades that can be installed in powertrains, etc. (using the same part number), with mass production scheduled to start in September 2024.

The lower this value is, the smaller the switching losses.　　Forward Voltage (VF)　　A voltage drop that occurs when electricity flows in the forward direction from + to -. The lower this value is, the higher the efficiency.　　Reverse Current (IR)　　Reverse current generated when reverse voltage is applied. The lower this value is, the smaller the power consumption (reverse power loss).　　Thermal Runaway　　When a diode is conducted in the reverse direction, heat generated within the chip may exceed the heat dissipation of the package, causing IR to increase and eventually lead to destruction, - a phenomenon called thermal runaway. For SBDs with high IR values, thermal runaway is especially likely to occur, so care must be taken when designing circuits.

Ameya360:Diodes Launches First SiC SBDs

　　Diodes Inc. has released its first silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky barrier diodes (SBD). The portfolio includes the DIODES DSCxxA065 series with 11 products rated at 650V (4A, 6A, 8A, and 10A) and the DIODES DSCxx120 series with eight products rated at 1.2kV (2A, 5A, and 10A).　　These wide-bandgap SBDs bring the benefits of significantly improved efficiency and high-temperature reliability, while also responding to market demands for reduced system running costs and low maintenance. The devices are suitable for AC-DC, DC-DC, and DC-AC switching converters, photovoltaic inverters, uninterruptable power supplies, and industrial motor drive applications. These devices can also be used in a variety of other circuits, such as boost converters for power factor correction.　　The efficient performance of these SiC devices are superior to those of conventional silicon-based products, and provide power supply designers with uncompromising product performance benefits, such as:　　Negligible switching losses due to low capacitive charge (QC) that provide high efficiency in fast switching applications. This is suitable for circuit designs with higher power density and smaller overall solution size.　　Low forward voltage (VF) that further improves efficiency, reducing power losses and operational costs.　　Reduced heat dissipation that helps lower overall system cooling budgets.　　High surge current capability that increases robustness for better system reliability, while excellent thermal performance reduces build costs.　　Three package options include surface mount TO252-2 (Type WX), through-hole TO220AC (Type WX), and ITO220AC (Type WX-NC).
