  • Patent number: 10892254
    Abstract: Use of gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductor material for power devices is challenging due to low yield caused by high defect density on the wafer. Device layout on the wafer, chip probing, and device packaging increase the yield of large area power devices. Device dies containing a plurality of lower-power sub-devices are used to achieve high power ratings, by connecting only functional sub-devices together in the package, while being tolerant of defective sub-devices by selectively excluding the defective sub-devices. The packages and methods are particularly relevant to GaN power switching devices such as high electron mobility transistors (GaN HEMT).

  • Patent number: 10855273
    Abstract: A gate driver circuit for a gallium nitride (GaN) power transistor includes a RS-flipflop that receives a first pulse train at an S input terminal and a second pulse train at an R input terminal, and produces an output pulse train, and an amplifier that amplifies the output pulse train and produces a gate driver signal for the GaN power transistor. The RS-flipflop and the amplifier may be implemented together on a GaN monolithic integrated circuit, optionally together with the GaN power transistor. The GaN power transistor may be a high-side switch of a half-bridge circuit. The RS-flipflop may be implemented with enhancement mode and depletion mode GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs). Embodiments avoid drawbacks of prior hybrid (e.g., silicon-GaN) approaches, such as parasitic inductances from bonding wires and on-board metal traces, especially at high operating frequencies, as well as reduce implementation cost and improve performance.
