    Abstract: Precise CMOS bandgap voltage and current references which uses the difference of MOS source-gate voltages to perform efficient curvature compensation are proposed and analyzed. Applying the developed design strategies, bandgap voltage references (BVR) with a temperature drift below 10 ppm/.degree.C. and a power supply drift below 10 ppm/V can be realized. For bandgap current references, both drifts can be under 15 ppm. An experimental BVR chip shows an average drift of 5.5 ppm/.degree.C. from -60.degree. C. to 150.degree. C. and 25 .mu.V/V for supply voltages between 5 V and 15 V at 25.degree. C. Due to novel curvature compensation, the circuit structure of the proposed references is simple and both chip area and power consumption are small.

    Abstract: A CMOS device containing a plurality of hexagon cells over a semiconductor substrate is disclosed. Each hexagon cell includes a hexagonal ring gate, a drain diffusion region and a source diffusion region. The hexagonal ring gate is made of conducting materials and a dielectric layer over the substrate, therefore defining a channel region in the substrate between the gate and the substrate. The entire drain diffusion region in the substrate is enclosed by the hexagonal ring gate. The source diffusion region surrounds the hexagonal ring gate in the substrate. Each hexagon cell further provides a drain contact in the center of the drain diffusion region. A plurality of source contacts are arranged around the ring gate over the substrate. The hexagon cells of a unique hexagon device are surrounded by a first guard ring and a second guard ring. The hexagon device can be used as a CMOS output buffer or input ESD protection circuit to reduce the layout area of an integrated circuit.

    Abstract: The present invention is an electronic device, and more particularly an MOS transistor. A square-type layout style is used to realize the MOS device. By using the present layout style, the output driving/sinking capability of output buffers as well as the ESD protection capability of NMOS and PMOS devices in output buffers or input ESD protection circuits are significantly improved within smaller layout area. Both drain diffusion area and drain-to-bulk parasitic capacitance at the output node are reduced by this square-type layout. Devices using the present layout style can be assembled to form larger, rectangular (or square) and similarly functioning devices. Thus, the present square-type layout style is very attractive to submicron CMOS VLSI/ULSI in high-density and high-speed applications.
