Abstract :
A major challenge in the semiconductor power device technology with continuing shrink in feature sizes and its circuit implementation is power density and heat build-up related problems. This paper discusses a significance of vertical power dissipation characteristics of LDMOS devices with investigating electrical and thermal behaviors under single- and multi-power pulse operations in terms of device substrate dimensions.
