Wafer Level Embedding Technology for Packaging of Planar GaN Half-Bridge Module in High Power Density Conversion Applications

A new fabrication process is presented for packaging of GaN bare devices in form of silicon-based packages using wafer level back-end processes. Compact planar half-bridge modules were fabricated at 200 mm wafer scale with 650 V rated single GaN bare die. The package demonstrates voltage breakdown up to 650 V with leakage current as low as 250 nA and thermal resistance RthJC of around 0.4 K/W. Implementation in power solutions has been first evaluated and results will be presented.
