摘要： The trend towards more digital signal processing in mains-powered devices causes an increasing variety of supply voltages at ever decreasing levels and at higher currents. At present, the secondary side architecture provides a separate ac-dc conversion and dc-dc down-conversion stages in order to obtain stabilized voltages at those low levels. According to the present invention, a controlling synchronous rectifier is provided, comprising a power MOSFET and a control unit which allow to integrate both stages. In particular, according to the present invention, the output voltage of the synchronous rectifier is controlled by controlling the channel switching of the MOSFET. Advantageously, this provides for a very simple and efficient rectification and voltage control.

摘要： A trench-gate semiconductor device, for example a MOSFET or IGBT, includes a semiconductor body (20) having a drain region (4) comprising a drain drift region (4a) and a drain contact region (4b). An insulated field plate (24) is included in the trench (10) between the gate (8) and the drain contact region (4b), wherein the field plate (24) is for connection to a bias potential greater than the gate potential and near to the bulk breakdown voltage of the drain drift region (4a). The field plate (24) causes the potential drop across the drain drift region (4a) to be spread considerably more evenly, particularly at applied voltages greater than the bulk breakdown voltage, thereby substantially increasing the breakdown voltage of the device.

摘要： A Trench gate MOS field-effect transistor having a narrow, lightly doped, region extending from a channel accommodating region (3) of same conductivity type immediately adjacent the trench sidewall. The narrow region may be self-aligned to the top of a lower polysilicon shield region in the trench or may extend the complete depth of the trench. The narrow region advantageously relaxes the manufacturing tolerances, which otherwise require close alignment of the upper polysilicon trench gate to the body-drain junction.

摘要： A driver circuit includes monitoring circuitry (32, 34, 36) for monitoring the states of high and low side switches (6, 8). The driver circuit has an adjustable delay for turning on the transistors (6, 8). The delay is decreased when the monitoring circuit detects that a voltage corresponding to one transistor passes a predetermined voltage V1 before a voltage corresponding to the other transistor passes another predetermined point V2, and vice versa.

摘要： A switching circuit for switching an input dc voltage of predetermined polarity is used, for example, for a synchronous dc-dc converter. The switching circuit is divided between a high side package (52) and a low side package (56) each having a logic input (90) and a switch (6,8) connected between switching outputs (84,86). The switching outputs (84,86) of the high and low side packages (52,56) are connected in series between input voltage terminals (4,2). A pulse width modulator (18) is connected to the logic inputs (90) of the packages for supplying an alternating control signal for switching the high and low side switches (6,8) alternately. Each of the high and low side packages (52,56) contains logic circuitry (150) for controlling the respective switch (6,8) based solely on the voltages on the respective logic input (90) and respective switching outputs (84,86) to prevent the switches (6,8) in the high and low side packages (52,56) from conducting at the same time. The logic circuitry (150) may use a predetermined delay or incorporate sense circuitry that switches based on the voltage on the outputs. In this way, the need for control interconnections between the high and low side packages (52,56) is avoided.

摘要： A synchronous dc—dc converter converts an input dc voltage to an output dc voltage. A control FET (6) and a sync FET (8) are connected in series between input dc voltage terminals (2,4). An alternating control signal input from a control circuit (18) controls the control and sync FETs (6,8) to be switched on alternately. At least one driver (30, 32) is provided to drive the FETs (6,8). In response to a change in the alternating control signal of a predetermined polarity, the driver (32) switches off the sync FET (8), and then the driver (30) waits for the trigger signal before switching on the control FET (6).
