  • Abstract
    This paper proposes a novel MOSFET structure that offers the low on-state resistance typical of trench technology coupled with the superior switching performance of planar DMOS technology. The proposed novel structure exhibits a simulated on-state resistance typical of trench technology but exhibits a simulated figure of merit [Rdson × Qgd] of ∼mOhms.nC and, more importantly, exhibits a simulated switching loss that is >60% less than that simulated for planar DMOS technology.
