| Abstract |
This paper investigated the destruction effect of the semiconductors by impact of high power electromagnetic wave. The experiments is employed as an open-ended waveguide to study the destruction effects on semiconductor using a 2.45 GHz 600 W Magnetron as a high power electromagnetic wave. The semiconductors are located at a distance of 31cm sim40cm from the open-ended waveguide and are composed of a LED drive circuit for visual discernment. Also the chip condition of semiconductor is observed by SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope) analysis. The semiconductor are damaged by high power electromagnetic wave at about 860 V/m. The SEM analysis of the destructed devices showed onchipwire and bondwire destructions. Based on the result, semiconductor devices should have plan to protect the semiconductor devices form high power electromagnetic wave. And the database from this experiment provides the basis for future investigation. |
