Abstract
A power module which includes a power semiconductor module chip, a driver chip and a charge storage element. The power semiconductor module chip is configured by forming an IGBT having a trench gate structure including a dummy trench gate, and a freewheeling diode for returning excess carrier of the emitter of the IGBT to the collector of the IGBT, in the same chip. The drive chip is used for driving the IGBT on/off. The power module is configured by packaging the power semiconductor module chip and the drive chip. The charge storage element that is connected between the gate and emitter of a dummy IGBT which can be pseudo-formed in order that the dummy trench gate be used in screening examinations.
