In this paper, a 1,200 V Si-based IGBT used in electric vehicles and new energy industries was designed. A field stop IGBT with a separate gate structure, which is the proposed structure, was designed to change trench depth and split gate width variables. Then, the general trench structure and electrical characteristics were compared and analyzed. As a result of conducting the trench depth experiment, it was confirmed that the breakdown voltage was the highest at 6 μm, and the on-state voltage drop was the lowest at 3.5 μm. In the separate gate width experiment, it was confirmed that the breakdown voltage decreased as the variable increased, and the on-state voltage drop increased. Therefore, it may be seen that it is preferable not to change the width of the separate gate. In addition, experiments show that there is no difference in on-state voltage drop compared to a structure in which a general field stop structure has a separate gate structure. In other words, it is determined that adding a dummy gate with a separate gate structure to the active cell will significantly improve the on-voltage drop characteristics, while confirming that the on-voltage drop does not change, and while having excellent characteristics in terms of breakdown voltage.
