Abstract
In this paper, the switching performance of monolithically integrated Si-GaN cascoded rectifiers is presented. The reverse recovery charge of the cascoded rectifier is 86.2% less than that of a Si fast recovery diode (FRD), which reveals great potential of cascoded rectifiers for high-speed power switching applications. Moreover, the double pulse tests are carried out for the cascoded rectifiers formed by monolithic integration and wire-bonding. The resulting power spectral densities show that the monolithically integrated one does not have current oscillation compared to that of the wire-bonded one.
