Power Devices
Silicon wafers have a great effect on device performance, Total Cost of Ownership and time to market. This is why device manufacturers are paying more attention to the choice of substrate and the demand for device and process optimized substrates is increasing.
Finding an optimal silicon wafer platform for one’s device and process needs isn’t always easy. To make the search easier we have compiled an indicative and non-exhaustive list of power applications and suitable wafer options below. Our sales and technical support are happy to help you find a perfect silicon solution for your device and process needs.
IGBTs and Power MOSFETs
Okmetic has a range of SSP, DSP and SOI wafers optimized for the needs of high-performing power semiconductors. Our red phosphorus wafers boast ultra-low resistivity values that reduce the on-resistance and power losses of low-voltage power MOSFETs in particular. Power Management SOI wafers are also available as Terrace Free SOI wafers.
Smart power / BCD devices
Okmetic has a range of SSP, DSP and SOI wafers optimized for the needs of high-performing power semiconductors. Power Management SOI wafers have shown to add value for High Voltage applications requiring trench dielectric isolation. These applications include embedded technologies such as smart power / BCD. Power Management SOI wafers offers an ideal platform for demanding applications such as BCD devices due to its thick and highly uniform device layer enabling increased design freedom, improved performance and precision and smaller die size. Power Management SOI wafers are also available as Terrace Free SOI wafers.
Lateral HV devices
Okmetic has a range of SSP, DSP and SOI wafers optimized for the needs of high-performing power semiconductors. Our Power Management SOI wafers, in particular, have shown to add value for High Voltage applications requiring trench dielectric isolation such as lateral HV devices. Both BSOI and E-SOI® wafers are also available as Terrace Free SOI wafers.
