Abstract:
In one embodiment, the invention comprises a MOSFET comprising individual MOSFET cells. Each cell comprises a U-shaped well (P type) and two parallel sources (N type) formed within the well. A Number of source rungs (doped N) connect sources at multiple locations. Regions between two rungs comprise a body (P type). These features are formed on an N-type epitaxial layer, which is formed on an N-type substrate. A contact extends across and contacts a number of source rungs and bodies. Gate oxide and a gate contact overlie a leg of a first well and a leg of a second adjacent well, inverting the conductivity responsive to a gate voltage. A MOSFET comprises a plurality of these cells to attain a desired low channel resistance. The cell regions are formed using self-alignment techniques at several states of the fabrication process.
