Abstract

The effects of Total Ionizing Dose (TID) radiation on the cells and terminations of Superjunction MOSFET (SJ-MOS) and conventional power MOSFET (C-MOS) were studied by simulations, respectively. The same degradation trends in electrical parameters were found for the cells of these two devices; however, the breakdown voltage (BV) of the termination region in SJ-MOS shows much less sensitivity to TID radiation. The reason why SJ-MOS has a superior TID endurance is discussed in detail.
