A high-side device includes: a substrate, an epitaxial layer, a high voltage well, a body region, a gate, a source, a drain, and a buried region. A channel junction is formed between the body region and the high voltage well. The buried region is formed in the substrate and the epitaxial layer, and in a vertical direction, a part of the buried region is located in the substrate and another part of the buried region is located in the epitaxial layer.

An impurity concentration of a second conductive type of the buried region is sufficient to prevent the high voltage well between the channel junction and the drain from being completely depleted when the high-side power device operates in a conductive operation. A corresponding manufacturing method is also disclosed.
