Wide bandgap transistor layout with staggered gate electrode fingers and split active regions

Abstract

A transistor comprising a first drain region split into first and second drain sub-regions aligned lengthwise and separated by a first low conductivity region, a first source region disposed on a first side of the first drain region split into first and second source sub-regions aligned lengthwise and separated by a second low conductivity region, a second source region disposed on a second side of the first drain region opposite the first side, the second source region split into third and fourth source sub-regions aligned lengthwise and separated by a third low conductivity region, a first gate electrode finger disposed over first and second active regions between the first drain region and first source region, and a second gate electrode finger disposed over third and fourth active regions between the first drain region and second source region.
