Description
Technical Field
The present utility model relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing technologies, and in particular, to a power semiconductor device and a switching power supply.
Background
Silicon carbide (SiC) material has excellent physical and electrical characteristics, and is an ideal semiconductor material for manufacturing high-power, high-frequency, high-voltage, high-temperature-resistant and radiation-resistant devices by the unique advantages of wide forbidden band, high thermal conductivity, high saturation drift speed, high critical breakdown electric field and the like. The silicon carbide MOSFET device has the advantages of high switching speed, small on-resistance and the like, can realize higher breakdown voltage level at smaller thickness of the drift layer, reduces the volume of the power switch module, reduces energy consumption, and has obvious advantages in the application fields of power switches, converters and the like.
Fig. 1 is a schematic circuit diagram of a prior art high voltage switching power supply. As shown in fig. 1, the high-voltage switching power supply 100 includes a voltage stabilizing circuit 101, a driving control circuit 102, and a high-voltage power device 103, and is typically zero potential with reference to ground. When the high-voltage switching power supply 100 starts to operate, the high-voltage power supply supplies an operating voltage and current to the drive control circuit 102 through the voltage stabilizing circuit 101. The first terminal HV of the high voltage power device 103 is connected to the high voltage power supply, the second terminal LV is connected to the reference ground, and the control terminal DR receives the driving signal. When the drive control circuit 102 starts to operate, the high-voltage power device 103 is controlled to be turned on to perform power conversion. The high-voltage power device 103 is a MOS device or an IGBT device, wherein a first end of the MOS device is a drain electrode, a second end of the MOS device is a source electrode, and a control end of the MOS device is a grid electrode; the first end of the IGBT device is a collector electrode, the second end of the IGBT device is an emitter electrode, and the control end of the IGBT device is a base electrode. Of course, the high voltage power device 103 may also be other types of devices, not to be limiting.
The voltage stabilizing circuit 101 steps down the high voltage power supply through a high voltage resistor, thereby supplying the drive control circuit 102 with an operating voltage and current. One end of the high-voltage resistor is connected to the high-voltage power supply, and the other end is connected to the drive control circuit 102. Because the current on the high-voltage resistor always exists, the starting time and the power consumption cannot be simultaneously considered, and especially when the voltage of the high-voltage power supply is very high, the power consumption on the high-voltage resistor can be further increased.
In the prior art, a low-voltage control circuit, a high-voltage MOS device and a voltage stabilizing circuit are integrated on the same silicon substrate, and the switching power supply is realized by adopting a high-voltage BCD (binary coded decimal) process, so that the starting time and the power consumption can be simultaneously considered.
However, the switching power supply adopts a high-voltage BCD technology, so that the technology of the whole system chip is complex and the cost is high, and the power consumption of the MOS device in the high-voltage BCD technology cannot be increased due to the limitation of the high-temperature characteristic of the silicon material, so that the high-power application cannot be expanded; meanwhile, the BCD process cannot be realized on the silicon carbide material, and the application and popularization of the technology are not facilitated.

Detailed Description
Various embodiments of the present utility model will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts. For clarity, the various features of the drawings are not drawn to scale.
The following describes in further detail the embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the drawings and examples.
Fig. 2 shows a schematic circuit structure of a switching power supply according to an embodiment of the present utility model. Referring to fig. 2, the high voltage switching power supply 200 includes a voltage stabilizing circuit 201, a driving control circuit 202, and a high voltage power device 203, and is typically zero potential with reference to ground. When the high-voltage switching power supply 200 starts to operate, the high-voltage power supply supplies an operating voltage and current to the drive control circuit 202 through the voltage stabilizing circuit 201. The first terminal HV of the high-voltage power device 203 is connected to the high-voltage power supply, the second terminal LV is connected to the reference ground, and the control terminal DR receives the driving signal. When the drive control circuit 202 starts to operate, the high-voltage power device 203 is controlled to be turned on to perform power conversion. The voltage stabilizing circuit 201 and the high-voltage power device 203 are transistor devices, for example, a MOS device or an IGBT device, where a first end of the MOS device is a drain electrode, a second end is a source electrode, and a control end is a gate electrode; the first end of the IGBT device is a collector electrode, the second end of the IGBT device is an emitter electrode, and the control end of the IGBT device is a base electrode.
In this embodiment, the high-voltage power device 203 is a first transistor M1, and the voltage stabilizing circuit 201 uses a second transistor M2 to step down the high-voltage power.
The first transistor M1 adopts an inversion channel structure, the second transistor M2 adopts an accumulation channel structure, and the high-voltage power device 203 and the voltage stabilizing circuit 201 are integrated on the same substrate to form the power semiconductor device 300 of the present application.
The first end HV of the first transistor M1 is connected to the high voltage power supply, the second end LV of the first transistor M1 is connected to the reference ground, and the control end DR of the first transistor M1 is connected to the driving end DR of the driving control circuit 202; the first terminal HV of the second transistor M2 is connected to the high voltage power supply, the second terminal of the second transistor M2 is output to the power supply terminal Vcc of the drive control circuit 202, and the drive control circuit 202 is provided with an operating voltage and current, and the control terminal Ctrl of the second transistor M2 is connected to the control terminal Ctrl of the drive control circuit 202.
When the switching power supply system is just started, the drive control circuit 202 does not work, the circuit outputs are all at zero potential, and the control terminal Ctrl and the power supply terminal Vcc of the drive control circuit 202 are both at zero potential. The gate and the source of the second transistor M2 are at zero potential, the second transistor M2 is turned on, and a current flows from the drain to the source of the second transistor M2, that is, from the first terminal HV to the power supply terminal Vcc of the drive control circuit 202; at the same time, the source potential of the second transistor M2 starts to rise, providing the drive control circuit 202 with an operating voltage and current. The driving control circuit 202 starts to operate, the driving end DR outputs a driving voltage of 10V to 15V, and the first transistor M1 is turned on. And the switching power supply system completes starting, works normally and performs power conversion.
After the start-up phase is completed, the gate and source of the second transistor M2 reach a high level. At this time, the driving control circuit 202 sets the gate of the second transistor M2 to zero potential through the control terminal Ctr1, and generates a negative voltage between the gate and the source of the second transistor M2, thereby turning off the accumulation channel type device, i.e., turning off the second transistor M2. After the system is operating normally, the power supply Vcc is continuously lowered by the drive control circuit 202 due to power consumption. When the power supply terminal Vcc drops to a certain level, the driving terminal DR of the driving control circuit 202 outputs a low level to turn off the first transistor M1. The control terminal Ctrl of the driving control circuit 202 sets the gate of the second transistor M2 to a high level, and the second transistor M2 is turned on to restart the start-up process.
Through the above description of the operation process, in the whole operation process, the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 may have voltage differences between the source electrodes and the gate electrodes of the two devices, and a certain isolation withstand voltage is required between the source electrodes and the gate electrodes of the two devices, otherwise, the system may not work normally.
The power semiconductor device provided by the utility model integrates the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 on the same chip, and the first transistor and the second transistor adopt different types of channel structures, so that the first transistor and the second transistor can be formed on the same silicon carbide substrate at the same time, the process is simple, and the complexity and the cost of the chip are reduced.

It should be noted that the manufacturing process in the embodiments may be modified or sequentially adjusted according to the actual situation. Meanwhile, for convenience of description, the embodiment is described only with an N-type MOSFET; the same applies for P-type MOSFETs.
