Working principle of the present invention: adding positive voltage on the metallization collector 11 of the IGBT, on metallization emitter 8
Add no-voltage, IGBT works in blocking state.At this point, the grid to IGBT adds voltage, IGBT gradually switchs to from blocking state
Open state.It is opened initial stage in IGBT, laterally consumption occurs for the P-type semiconductor item of the N-type semiconductor item of cellular region and false cellular region
To the greatest extent, so that the potential of P-type semiconductor item is lower than N-type semiconductor item.At this point, can be along from the hole displacement current that collector survey comes
P-type semiconductor item flows to emitter side, then flows out device by polysilicon diode, it is suppressed that product of the hole near grid
It is tired.Meanwhile the presence of polysilicon diode occupies most of region of false cellular emitter side, equally inhibits hole in grid
Accumulation near extremely.Since the displacement current that the accumulation of this partial holes generates can charge to gate capacitance, opened to weaken IGBT
Grid control ability when opening increases electromagnetic interference noise.And SRP-IGBT reduces charging of the displacement current to gate capacitance
Effect, to enhance grid control ability when device is opened, reduce electromagnetic interference noise.
Under SRP-IGBT is in the conductive state, diode there are the potentials of clamper P-type semiconductor item, it is suppressed that P
Extraction of the type semiconductor bar to hole, enhances the conductivity modulation effect of device, reduces conduction voltage drop.Meanwhile SRP-IGBT
It, rapidly will be superfluous when off since having lateral depletion occurs for the N-type semiconductor item of cellular region and the P-type semiconductor item of false cellular region
Carrier extracts device out, greatly reduces the turn-off time.So SRP-IGBT has extremely low power loss.
When SRP-IGBT is under short-circuit condition, since the potential of P-type semiconductor item is by polysilicon diode clamper,
Hole current of a part from collector side exports device by polysilicon diode, to reduce the sky for flowing through the base area P-
Cave electric current.And the hole current that ought flow through the base area P- is sufficiently large, can trigger the unlatching of IGBT parasitic thyristor, so that device loses
Effect.For SRP-IGBT, less hole, which flows through the base area P-, greatly to inhibit the unlatching of parasitic thyristor, to increase
The short-circuit safety operation area of SRP-IGBT.
It is emulated to SRP-IGBT provided by the invention and with floating vacation cellular IGBT (Floating-P IGBT) structure
Comparison, further demonstrates the superiority of this structure.Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 gives the threshold value of SRP-IGBT and Floating-P IGBT
The comparison of voltage and voltage endurance.In order to guarantee fair compare, it is necessary to assure SRP-IGBT and Floating-P IGBT is consistent
Blocking ability and threshold voltage;Fig. 5 gives SRP-IGBT and Floating-P IGBT and opens power consumption and electromagnetic interference noise
(Maxmum dVKA/dt).From fig. 5, it can be seen that (the E under identical unlatching power consumptionon), the Maxmum dV of SRP-IGBTKA/dt
It is reduced to 2.82kV/ μ s from 12.86kV/ μ s, realizes 78% reduction amount, the electromagnetic interference for greatly inhibiting IGBT to open is made an uproar
Sound.

Under loss, the conduction voltage drop of the conduction voltage drop ratio C-IGBT of SRP-IGBT low 35%.

IGBT fails after 10.4 μ s short-circuit impacts, and Floating-P IGBT fails after 7.6 μ s short-circuit impacts.SRP-
The duration of short-circuit ratio Floating-P IGBT's of IGBT is long by 37%.
