Abstract

Power semiconductor switching devices, power converters, integrated circuit assemblies, integrated circuitry, power current switching methods, methods of forming a power semiconductor switching device, power conversion methods, power semiconductor switching device packaging methods, and methods of forming a power transistor are described. One exemplary aspect provides a power converter including a transformer including a primary side comprising a primary inductive device configured to receive electricity at a first voltage and a first current and a plurality of primary terminals coupled with the primary inductive device; and a secondary side comprising a secondary inductive device coupled with the primary inductive device and configured to provide electricity at a second voltage different than the first voltage and a second current different than the first current and a plurality of secondary terminals coupled with the secondary inductive device; wherein the secondary side comprises a power semiconductor switching device comprising a plurality of planar field effect transistors having a plurality of electrically coupled sources and a plurality of electrically coupled drains to conduct the second current intermediate the secondary inductive device and one of the secondary terminals.
