  • Patent number: 9824949
    Abstract: Packaging solutions for devices and systems comprising lateral GaN power transistors are disclosed, including components of a packaging assembly, a semiconductor device structure, and a method of fabrication thereof. In the packaging assembly, a GaN die, comprising one or more lateral GaN power transistors, is sandwiched between first and second leadframe layers, and interconnected using low inductance interconnections, without wirebonding. For thermal dissipation, the dual leadframe package assembly can be configured for either front-side or back-side cooling. Preferred embodiments facilitate alignment and registration of high current/low inductance interconnects for lateral GaN devices, in which contact areas or pads for source, drain and gate contacts are provided on the front-side of the GaN die.

  • Publication number: 20110291572
    Abstract: An active matrix display comprises a display area of the matrix comprising drive circuitry including a control circuit comprising chiplets outside the display area. The output of the control circuit is distributed among the plurality of chiplets. This arrangement is advantageous in that the chiplets allow for a much smaller fan-in and fan-out structure, thus allowing a much larger percentage of the substrate to be devoted to display area.

  • Publication number: 20090027822
    Abstract: A transient blocking unit (TBU) is a transistor circuit that is normally on, but rapidly and automatically switches to a high-resistance current blocking state when a current threshold is exceeded, thereby protecting a series connected load from over-voltage or over-current conditions. Process variation of transistor threshold voltage and on-resistance can cause undesirable variation of the TBU threshold current and/or of TBU resistance. Control of TBU threshold current and/or resistance is improved by providing for trimming the TBU during its fabrication to provide a one-time adjustment of the threshold current or resistance. Such trimming can be done with a resistive trimming circuit placed in series with the on-resistance of the relevant TBU transistor. Alternatively, a segmented TBU transistor having an on-resistance that is adjustable by way of wire bonding during fabrication can be employed.

  • Patent number: 7369387
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for temperature-dependent transient blocking employing a transient blocking unit (TBU) that uses at least one depletion mode n-channel device interconnected with at least one depletion mode p-channel device. The interconnection is performed such that a transient alters a bias voltage Vp of the p-channel device and a bias voltage Vn of the n-channel device in concert to effectuate their mutual switch off to block the transient. The apparatus has a temperature control unit that is in communication with the TBU and adjusts at least one of the bias voltages Vp, Vn in response to a sensed temperature Ts, thereby enabling the apparatus to also respond to over-temperature. In some embodiments the p-channel device is replaced with a positive temperature coefficient thermistor (PTC). The temperature control unit can use any suitable circuit element, including, among other a PTC, resistor, negative temperature coefficient element, positive temperature coefficient element, transistor, diode.
