摘要:
This method, requiring a reduced number of process phases and providing an efficient, high-voltage structure, comprises forming a P-well region of the N-channel transistor of a CMOS device, by means of boron atom implant through a protective mask, forming at least one insulation region surrounding the CMOS device, forming edge regions having the same conductivity type as the insulation region but with a smaller concentration of impurities on at least one part of the insulation region and in the high-voltage electronic devices by means of the same boron atom implant used to form the P-well region.

This method, requiring a smaller number of masking steps with respect to the known methods, comprises boron implant on the surface of an epitaxial layer, without masking, and arsenic implant in predetermined locations of the epitaxial layer surface by means of an appropriate mask. A subsequent thermal treatment then leads to diffusion of the implanted arsenic and boron atoms, but boron diffusion in the regions in which arsenic implant has also occurred is prevented by the interaction with the latter, to thereby obtain regions with an N.sup.+ type conductivity where both boron and arsenic have been implanted and regions of P type conductivity where only boron has been implanted.

摘要:
A process for doping a P-type substrate (50) by forming a layer (52) of silicon nitride, implanting N-type impurities through this layer (FIG. 7), forming a resist mask (54) which leaves at least one area of the substrate (FIG. 8) containing a part of the nitride layer exposed, implanting N-type impurities first with an insufficient energy and then with a sufficient energy to traverse the nitride layer, subjecting (FIG. 9) the substrate to a high temperature treatment in an oxidizing environment to form silicon dioxide pads (55) on the areas of the substrate not covered by the nitride layer, removing the nitride layer and performing an implantation of P-type impurities into the areas delimited by the pads. The process then continues with the removal of the pads and, in the conventional manner, with the formation of an epitaxial layer and selective doping of this to form P-type and N-type regions in it. The process described allows the production of integrated devices with an additional buried layer while utilizing one fewer mask than conventional processes.

A diode integrated on semiconductor material with BCD technology and of the type provided on a substrate having a first type of conductivity inside an isolation region having a second type of conductivity. The diode comprises also a buried anode region having a first type of conductivity and a cathode region having a second type of conductivity. The cathode region comprises an epitaxial layer located above the buried anode region and a highly doped region provided inside the epitaxial layer. The buried anode region comprises depressions opposite which is located the highly doped region with the depressions being achieved by the intersection of lateral diffusions of distinct and adjacent portions of the buried anode region.
摘要:
In a junction isolated integrated circuit including power DMOS transistors formed in respective well regions or in an isolated epitaxial region on a substrate of opposite type of conductivity, circuits are formed in a distinct isolated region sensitive to oversupply and/or belowground effects. These effects are caused by respective power DMOS transistors coupled to the supply rail or ground. These effects are alternatively controllable by specifically shaped layout arrangements, and may be effectively protected from both effects. This is achieved by interposing between the region of sensitive circuits and the region containing the power DMOS transistors for which the alternatively implementable circuital arrangements are not formed, the region containing the power DMOS transistors coupled to the supply rail or to a ground rail for which the alternatively implementable arrangements are formed. The special interposition separates and shields the sensitive circuits from the power device whose oversupply or belowground effect is not countered by specific circuit arrangements.
摘要:
An LDMOS structure is formed in a region of a first type of conductivity of a semiconductor substrate and comprises a gate, a drain region and a source region. The source region is formed by a body diffusion of a second type of conductivity within the first region, and a source diffusion of the first type of conductivity is within the body diffusion. An electrical connection diffusion of the second type of conductivity is a limited area of the source region, and extends through the source diffusion and reaches down to the body diffusion. At least one source contact is on the source diffusion and the electrical connection diffusion. The LDMOS structure further comprises a layer of silicide over the whole area of the source region short-circuiting the source diffusion and the electrical connection diffusion. The source contact is formed on the silicide layer.
