Abstract

The total safe operating area (SOA) of LDMOS transistors is discussed. It is shown that the transistors are subjected to different kinds of stresses, yielding a combination of electrical and thermal degradation and/or failure modes. A methodology to build the total SOA for LDMOS transistors is highlighted and is experimentally verified on a 40-V LDMOS implemented in a
