Description
本発明の第1実施形態に係る半導体装置は、図1に示すように、SiC基板上に区画された活性領域40、及び活性領域40から離間して配置された引出電極領域41を備える例を図示省略している。図1に示すレイアウトは一例であり、活性領域40からの電気的影響が抑制できる構造であれば、活性領域40が占有していると見なせる等価的範囲の一部に引出電極領域41が収納されたようなレイアウトでも構わない。活性領域40には、半導体素子が配置され、半導体素子のソース領域(第1主電極領域)に接続された主電極パッド(ソースパッド)17が設けられる。引出電極領域41には、半導体素子のゲート電極(制御電極)に接続された制御電極パッド(ゲートパッド)18が設けられる。
第1実施形態の変形例に係る半導体装置は、図12に示すように、制御電極分離絶縁膜10の底面角部は第1下側埋込領域5cにより覆われているが、制御電極パッド18の下の制御電極分離絶縁膜10の底面の中央部は電流拡散層3に接している。第1実施形態の変形例は、制御電極分離絶縁膜10の底面の中央部は電流拡散層3に接している点が第1実施形態と異なる。他の構成は第1実施形態と同様であるので重複する記載は省略する。
本発明の第2実施形態に係る絶縁ゲート型半導体装置は、図13に示すように、活性領域40、引出電極領域41、及び周辺回路領域42を備える。周辺回路領域42は、活性領域40及び引出電極領域41から離間して設けられ、活性領域40及び引出電極領域41から分離するための分離領域20で囲まれている。周辺回路領域42には、補助素子が配置され、上面に補助素子に接続される表面電極(第3表面電極)17aが設けられる。図13に示すレイアウトは一例であり、活性領域40からの電気的影響が抑制できれば、凹部を備えた多角形で活性領域40を構成して、引出電極領域41や周辺回路領域42をその凹部に収納するようなレイアウトでも構わない。本発明の第2実施形態は、補助素子を有する周辺回路領域42を備える点が第1実施形態と異なる。他の構成は第1実施形態と同様であるので重複する記載は省略する。
上記のように、本発明は第1及び第2実施形態によって記載したが、この開示の一部をなす論述及び図面は本発明を限定するものであると理解すべきではない。この開示から当業者には様々な代替実施形態、実施例及び運用技術が明らかとなろう。上記の実施形態及び各変形例において説明される各構成を任意に応用した構成等、本発明はここでは記載していない様々な実施形態等を含むことは勿論である。したがって、本発明の技術的範囲は上記の説明から妥当な特許請求の範囲に係る発明特定事項によってのみ定められるものである。
