    Abstract: A semiconductor controlled rectifier (FIG. 4A) for an integrated circuit is disclosed. The semiconductor controlled rectifier comprises a first lightly doped region (100) having a first conductivity type (N) and a first heavily doped region (108) having a second conductivity type (P) formed within the first lightly doped region. A second lightly doped region (104) having the second conductivity type is formed proximate the first lightly doped region. A second heavily doped region (114) having the first conductivity type is formed within the second lightly doped region. A buried layer (101) having the first conductivity type is formed below the second lightly doped region and electrically connected to the first lightly doped region. A third lightly doped region (102) having the second conductivity type is formed between the second lightly doped region and the third heavily doped region. A fourth lightly doped region (400) having the second conductivity type is formed between the second lightly doped region and the third heavily doped region and electrically connected to the second and third lightly doped regions.

    Abstract: An analog floating-gate electrode in an integrated circuit, and method of fabricating the same, in which trapped charge can be stored for long durations. The analog floating-gate electrode is formed in a polycrystalline silicon gate level, and includes portions serving as a transistor gate electrode, a plate of a metal-to-poly storage capacitor, and a plate of poly-to-active tunneling capacitors. A silicide-block film comprised of a layer of silicon dioxide underlying a top layer of silicon nitride blocks the formation of silicide cladding on the electrode, while other polysilicon structures in the integrated circuit, such as polysilicon-to-metal capacitors, are silicide-clad. Following silicidation, a capacitor dielectric is deposited over the remaining polysilicon structures, followed by formation of an upper metal plate.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit containing a MOS transistor and a DEMOS transistor of a same polarity may be formed by implanting dopants of a same conductivity type as source/drain regions of the MOS transistor and the DEMOS transistor through a gate of the MOS transistor and through a gate of the DEMOS transistor. The implanted dopants are blocked from a drain-side edge of the DEMOS transistor gate. The implanted dopants form a drain enhancement region under the DEMOS transistor gate in a drift region of an extended drain of the DEMOS transistor.
