Atrin Tavakoli

Title: Atrin Tavakoli and His Power-Transistor Invention.

Introduction

Atrin Tavakoli is an inventor based in Ottawa, Canada, associated with Infineon Technologies Canada Inc. His patent work addresses power-transistor operation and control.

Latest Patents

Tavakoli is credited with 1 patent: “Selective Gate Overdrive of Transistor.” The invention describes overdriving the gate of a power field-effect transistor with a higher voltage after detecting that the transistor has entered the saturation region. A sense field-effect transistor helps detect this condition and uses the same epitaxial stack of semiconductor layers as the power transistor, including a heterojunction between adjacent layers.

Career Highlights

The available information connects Tavakoli’s invention to Infineon Technologies Canada Inc. The patent focuses on detecting transistor saturation and adjusting gate voltage in response.

Collaborations

Tavakoli’s listed coworkers include Seyedarmin Miremad and Iman Abdali Mashhadi.

Conclusion

Atrin Tavakoli’s patent describes a transistor-control approach that uses a same-stack sense transistor to detect saturation and trigger gate overdrive.
