Abstract

The invention discloses an insulated gate bipolar transistor terminal and a producing method thereof. The insulated gate bipolar transistor terminal comprises a drift region and a terminal protection structure which is located in the drift region, wherein the terminal protection structure comprises a main node, a stop ring and a voltage division groove which is located between the main node and the stop ring. According to the insulated gate bipolar transistor terminal, the voltage division groove is formed between the main node and the stop ring and used for cutting off the node bending of a curved surface of the main node, so that the concentration of an electric field is eliminated and the breakdown voltage is improved. At the same time, the voltage division groove exists in the drift region in a groove form; and compared with a field limiting ring structure, the structure has the advantages of greatly decreasing the area of the terminal protection structure, decreasing the total area of a chip and reducing the production cost of the chip.
