A trenched semiconductor power device includes a trenched gate insulated by a gate insulation layer and surrounded by a source region encompassed in a body region above a drain region disposed on a bottom surface of a semiconductor substrate. The source region surrounding the trenched gate includes a metal of low barrier height to function as a Schottky source. The metal of low barrier height further may include a PtSi or ErSi layer. In a preferred embodiment, the metal of low barrier height further includes an ErSi layer. The metal of low barrier height further may be a metal silicide layer having the low barrier height. A top oxide layer is disposed under a silicon nitride spacer on top of the trenched gate for insulating the trenched gate from the source region. A source contact disposed in a trench opened into the body region for contacting a body-contact dopant region and covering with a conductive metal layer such as a Ti/TiN layer. In a preferred embodiment, the semiconductor power device constitutes an asymmetrical double diffusion metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (DMOSFET) device.

A method of performing a programming, testing and trimming operation is disclosed in this invention. The method includes a step of applying a programming circuit for programming an OTP memory for probing and sensing one of three different states of the OTP memory for carrying out a trimming operation using one of the three states of the OTP memory whereby a higher utilization of OTP memory cells is achieved. Selecting and programming two conductive circuits of the OTP into two different operational characteristics thus enables the storing and sensing one of the three different states of the OTP memory. These two conductive circuits may include two different transistors for programming into a linear resistor and a nonlinear resistor with different current conducting characteristics. The programming processes include application of a high voltage and different programming currents thus generating different operational characteristics of these two transistors.

An EEPROM memory device includes a substrate of a first conductivity type having a cell well region of a second conductivity type therein. A floating-gate transistor of the first conductivity type resides in the cell well region and includes a first region separated from a second region by a channel region. A write transistor of the second conductivity type resides in the substrate and includes a first region separated from a second region by a channel region. The second region partially extends into the cell well region and forms a p-n junction with the second region of the floating-gate transistor. The process for fabricating the EEPROM device includes forming the cell well region in the substrate by creating a retrograde doping profile. In operation, the EEPROM device transfers electrons between the cell well region and the floating-gate electrode during both programming and erasing operations.

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device is provided in which multi-layer structures are formed on a semiconductor substrate to form core and peripheral regions. Sidewall spacers are formed around the multi-layer structures and source and drain regions are implanted adjacent the sidewall spacers. The multi-layer structures and the source and drain regions are silicided and a stop layer is deposited over the semiconductor substrate after which a dielectric layer is deposited over the stop layer. A photoresist contact mask is deposited, processed, and used to form core contact openings over the core region, which expose the multi-layer structure in addition to the source and drain regions while covering the peripheral region. Protective secondary sidewall spacers are formed in the core contact openings over the exposed multi-layer structures. A second photoresist contact mask is deposited, processed, and used to form peripheral local interconnect openings over the peripheral region which the source and drain regions and portions of the plurality of multi-layer structures in the peripheral region while covering the core region. A conductive material is deposited over the dielectric layer and in the core contact and peripheral local interconnect openings and is chemical mechanical planarized to remove the conductive material over the dielectric layer so the conductive material is left isolated in the core and peripheral contact openings.
