Abstract
Detailed characterizations were performed to evaluate the influence of device geometry on the L X , AC and SOA performances of power bipolar transistors. Appropriate performance indices normalized to total device area were defmed, leading to recommendation of a novel baseemitter geometry for optimal performance. Their implementation resulted in significant reduction in silicon area for both NPN and PNP.
