Power and Sensor Devices Essential to Automotive Semiconductor Modules
Speaker: Hans Stork, Ph.D.
Affiliation: ON Semiconductor
Abstract: Cars are increasingly driven by electronics to reduce human error, improve traffic flow and to meet environmental regulations. The semiconductor components that enable this functionality range from medium voltage discretes to replace relays to integrated, high-voltage motor drivers with re-programmability at high temperature. In this talk we will review the technology trends underlying the improvements in power discretes (IGBTs, HV FETs, and WBG devices), the scaling trends and integration challenge of HV BCD processes, as well as the assembly technology to integrate these and other heterogeneous components into power(ful) modules.
