A semiconductor device of low power consumption and high reliability with a DTMOS and a substrate bias variable transistor and a portable electronic apparatus comprising this semiconductor device. This device has three layer well regions (12, 14, 16; 13, 15, 16) on a semiconductor substrate (11) and is provided with DTMOSs (29, 30), and substrate bias variable transistors (27, 28) in shallow well regions (16, 17). A boundary which constitutes a PNP, an NPN, or an NPNP structure is provided with wide element isolating regions (181, 182, 183), but a narrow element isolating region (18) when both the well regions have the same conductivity type. Thus, a plurality of well regions of respective conductivity types provided with substrate bias variable transistors (27, 28) of the respective conductivity types are made electrically independent to reduce power consumption and to suppress latchup phenomenon.

摘要:
A semiconductor device having a two-layer well structure and a small margin required at the boundary of a well region and comprising a substrate-bias variable transistor and a DTMOS. Field effect transistors (223) are formed on a P-type shallow well region (212). The depth of a shallow device isolation region (214) on the P-type shallow well region (212) is less than the depth of the junction between an N-type deep well region (227) and the P-type shallow well region (212). Therefore the field effect transistors (223) share the P-type shallow well region (212). The P-type shallow well regions (212) independently of each other are easily formed since they are isolated from each other by a deep device isolation region (226) and the N-type deep well region (227).

Over the N-type deep well regions (12), a P-type deep well region (13) and a P-type shallow well region (15) are formed to fabricate an N-type substrate variable-bias transistor (26). Over the N-type deep well region (12), an N-type shallow well region (14) is formed to fabricate a P-type substrate variable-bias transistor (25). Further a P-type DTMOS (28) and an N-type DTMOD (27) are fabricated.
摘要:
There is provided a semiconductor device of low power consumption and high reliability having DTMOS' and substrate-bias variable transistors, and portable electronic equipment using the semiconductor device. On a semiconductor substrate (11), trilayer well regions (12, 14, 16; 13, 15, 16) are formed, and DTMOS' (29, 30) and substrate-bias variable transistors (27, 28) are provided in the shallow well regions (16, 17). Large-width device isolation regions (181, 182, 183) are provided at boundaries forming PNP, NPN or NPNP structures, where a small-width device isolation region (18) is provided on condition that well regions on both sides are of an identical conductive type. Thus, a plurality of well regions of individual conductive types where substrate-bias variable transistors (27, 28) of individual conductive types are provided can be made electrically independent of one another, allowing the power consumption to be reduced. Besides, the latch-up phenomenon can be suppressed.
