One exemplary disclosed embodiment comprises a two-terminal stacked-die package including a diode, such as a silicon diode, stacked atop a III-nitride transistor, such that a cathode of the diode resides on and is electrically coupled to a source of the III-nitride transistor. A first terminal of the package is coupled to a drain of the III-nitride transistor, and a second terminal of the package is coupled to an anode of the diode. In this manner, devices such as cascoded rectifiers may be packaged in a stacked-die form, resulting in reduced parasitic inductance and resistance, improved thermal dissipation, smaller form factor, and lower manufacturing cost compared to conventional packages. |
