此外，課程將強調理論與實務的結合，透過業界產品的 datasheet 解讀、元件規格分析、實際應用電路的設計考量與案例研討，讓學生理解功率元件在電力電子系統中所扮演的角色與選選擇。學生將透過課堂講授、產品分析、分組討論與期末報告，培養從物理原理到應用設計的整合能力，為未來進入半導體或電力電子相關產業奠定紮實基礎。

The content planning of this course aims to establish students' complete understanding of power semiconductor components. It starts from basic semiconductor physics and gradually leads to component structure design and application analysis. It is also combined with practical experience in the industry to cultivate students' abilities in component selection, specification interpretation and application design.
The course will focus on the basics of semiconductor physics at the beginning, including carrier transport mechanism, PN junction behavior, operating principle and collapse mechanism of MOSFET, etc., to lay the physical foundation required for component design. The middle part of the course will delve into the design and characteristics of various types of power semiconductor components, including power diodes, metal oxide semi-field effect transistors, etc., and analyze their conduction characteristics, switching behavior, loss mechanisms and thermal design considerations. Later courses will be extended to new component architectures and material technologies, such as SGT MOSFET, CoolMOS... and other structures, as well as the design principles and application challenges of wide bandgap material components (SiC, GaN), allowing students to grasp the development trends of power component technology.
In addition, the course will emphasize the combination of theory and practice. Through datasheet interpretation of industry products, component specification analysis, design considerations of practical application circuits, and case studies, students will understand the role and selection of power components in power electronic systems. Through classroom lectures, product analysis, group discussions and final reports, students will develop their ability to integrate from physical principles to application design, laying a solid foundation for future entry into semiconductor or power electronics-related industries.
