Abstract
  • Introduction of Fuji Electric Device Technology
  • Design Considerations in HV Power MOSFET. Important design considerations in new generation of high-voltage power MOSFET are presented. On-resistance, Qgd, breakdown voltage, ruggedness, and noise emission are treated.
  • Design Considerations in 6th Generation IGBT. Important design considerations in new generation of IGBT are presented. On-state voltage, switching loss, breakdown voltage, ruggedness, and noise emission are treated.
Biography

Dr. Tatsuhiko Fujihira is the Directing Manager of Electron Device Laboratory, Fuji Electric Device Technology Co., Ltd. Dr. Fujihira received his bachelor and master degrees from Tokyo University in 1982 and 1984 respectively. He joined Fuji Electric in 1985 to engage in R&D of power semiconductor devices. In 1995, he became the manager of power MOSFET and IGBT chip design. In 1998, Dr. Fujihira obtained his doctoral degree from Yamanashi University. Since then, Dr. Fujihira held many important positions, including the Director of Fuji Hitachi Power Semiconductor in 2000, the General Manager of Automotive Product Development Dept, Fuji Electric Device Technology in 2003, the Vice-Directing Manager of Semiconductor Factory in 2004, and the Directing Manager of Semiconductor Technology Development Division in 2006. Dr. Fujihira became the Directing Manager of Electron Device Laboratory in 2007.

Dr. Fujihira also holds numerous prestigious awards. These include the Invention Encouragement Award from Japan Institute of Invention and Innovation (Vertical power MOSFET, 1999), the President Award from Fuji Electric (Vertical power IC technology, 2000), the President Award from Fuji Electric (Super-junction patents, 2000), and the OHM Technology Award form The Promotion Foundation for Electrical Science and Engineering (vertical power MOSFET, 2002).

Dr. Fujihira has more than twenty years of experience in power semiconductor technology; research, development, product design, yield control, and process quality control. He has more than one hundred patents and more than twenty technical papers on power semiconductor devices including the first technical paper on super-junction device.
