Abstract:
A semiconductor device having a vertical drain extended MOS transistor may be formed by forming deep trench structures to define vertical drift regions of the transistor, so that each vertical drift region is bounded on at least two opposite sides by the deep trench structures. The deep trench structures are spaced so as to form RESURF regions for the drift region. Trench gates are formed in trenches in the substrate over the vertical drift regions. The body regions are located in the substrate over the vertical drift regions.
Abstract:
An integrated circuit and method having an extended drain MOS transistor with a buried drift region, a drain end diffused link between the buried drift region and the drain contact, and a concurrently formed channel end diffused link between the buried drift region and the channel, where the channel end diffused link is formed by implanting through segmented areas to dilute the doping to less than two-thirds the doping in the drain end diffused link.
Abstract:
An integrated circuit containing an extended drain MOS transistor which has a drift layer, an upper RESURF layer over and contacting an upper surface of the drift layer, and a buried drain extension below the drift layer which is electrically connected to the drift layer at the drain end and separated from the drift layer at the channel end. A lower RESURF layer may be formed between the drift layer and the buried drain extension at the channel end. Any of the upper RESURF layer, the drift layer, the lower RESURF layer and the buried drain extension may have a graded doping density from the drain end to the channel end. A process of forming an integrated circuit containing an extended drain MOS transistor which has the drift layer, the upper RESURF layer, and the buried drain extension.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device has a vertical drain extended MOS transistor with deep trench structures to define a vertical drift region and at least one vertical drain contact region, separated from the vertical drift region by at least one instance of the deep trench structures. Dopants are implanted into the vertical drain contact regions and the semiconductor device is annealed so that the implanted dopants diffuse proximate to a bottom of the deep trench structures. The vertical drain contact regions make electrical contact to the proximate vertical drift region at the bottom of the intervening deep trench structure. At least one gate, body region and source region are formed above the drift region at, or proximate to, a top surface of a substrate of the semiconductor device. The deep trench structures are spaced so as to form RESURF regions for the drift region.
