Problems solved by technology

[0005] Continue to increase the number of dummy gates on the outside of the conventional gate along the direction of the original dummy gate: In the case of constant cell size, increasing the number of dummy gates outside the conventional gate means that the process feature size becomes smaller, The minimum process size is bound to be limited by the manufacturing process and equipment. Therefore, there is a limit to the increase in the number of dummy gates, and the reduction of process feature size will increase the process difficulty and cost of IGBT chips.

Embodiment 3

[0071] When the P-type sub-region is in a floating state, the turn-off speed will be reduced, and the turn-off loss will be increased, which will affect the performance of the safe working area of ​​the chip. Therefore, it is necessary to lead out the P-type sub-region to the surface of the chip to realize an electrical ground connection. However, when the dummy gate trench gate forms a network structure, each P-type sub-region formed by division is isolated from each other. If each P-type sub-region is electrically connected to ground, according to the traditional method, it is necessary to connect each P-type sub-region to the ground. A lead-out window for leading the P-type sub-region to the chip surface is set on the suspended P-type sub-region, which will lead to a reduction in the number of grooves per unit area due to the existence of the lead-out window under the limitation of equipment and process level , that is, reducing the trench density, which is not conducive to...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor devices, in particular to a trench gate IGBT chip. Background technique [0002] At present, most IGBT manufacturers adopt trench gate structure technology to obtain lower power consumption, higher power density, and faster switching speed. [0003] For trench gate IGBT chips, trench gate IGBT chips with dummy gates appear now in order to take into account the withstand voltage, power consumption and safe operating area performance of the chip. In the structure of the IGBT chip, the gate is divided into a normal gate and a dummy gate. Conventional gates are used for switch control, while virtual gates are used to improve chip performance (such as on-resistance, withstand voltage and safe operating area, etc.). A schematic cross-sectional view of a trench gate IGBT chip with a dummy gate is shown in figure 1 shown. exist figure 1 The cell structure of the shown IGBT chip includes groove I, groove ...
