Process and device design parameters are discuessed and optimized. Large-area vertical devices with drain-currents/breakdown-voltages of up to 20 A/250 V and lateral devices with breakdown voltages V(DS) > 30 V are demonstrated on the same die and subsequently diced and packaged. Finally, multi-pulse tests in a double pulse test setup (inductive load) are demonstrated with lateral HEMTs as a gate-driver stage and a vertical CAVET with maximum drain current >4 A at 250 kHz and V(IN) = 40 V on a total chip area of 3 mm [2]. This work demonstrates a technology platform for a direct integration of vertical GaN power devices with lateral functionality.enPower semiconductor devicesgallium nitridepower integrated circuitsmonolithic integrated circuitsTowards Vertical GaN-Power ICs: Co-integration of Lateral HEMTs and Vertical Power CAVETsconference paper
