Abstract :
In this paper, new Vertical FLI-MOSFETs dedicated to automotive applications are proposed for the first time: in these devices, only one P Floating Island is introduced in the N- epitaxial region. In term of "specific on-resistance/breakdown voltage" trade-off, it is shown that the FLIMOSFET exhibits better performance than the conventional VDMOSFET and approaches the well-known "silicon limit". This is due to the strong reduction of access (Ra.S) and drift (Rb.S) resistances, because of the increase in the N- epitaxial layer doping concentration. In other words, the FLIMOSFET appears to be one of the best Power MOSFET in low voltage applications.
