Abstract :
An expression for the on-resistance of a V-groove vertical-channel m.o.s. (V-v.m.o.s.) transistor is presented. The expression relates the on-resistance to the geometry and resistivity of the drain drift region and is useful in optimising the drift region parameters for minimum on-resistance and maximum drain-source breakdown.
