Glass for Encapsulating High Temperature Power Modules
2020
Conventional polymeric or organic encapsulants cannot survive long-term operation at high temperatures (>250 °C) due to their thermal degradation. In this work, we evaluated an inorganic material, i.e., a low-melting-point (Tmelt 3 kV at temperatures up to 250 °C. The glass-encapsulated 1-kV, 36-A SiC MOSFETs showed normal static and dynamic characteristics, suggesting that the glass did not cause damages to the SiC devices during processing. As for reliability, the glass encapsulant survived a much longer time than several high-temperature polymeric encapsulants (rated temperature > 300 °C) soaked at 250 °C.
