A CMOS integrated circuit (15A-B-C) includes both relatively low-power (124, 126) and high-power (132, 134) CMOS transistors on the same chip. A 20V, relatively high-power PMOS device (134) includes a heavily doped N-well drain region (70).

The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device having an alignment feature. The method for manufacturing the semiconductor device, among other steps, may include implanting an n-type dopant into a substrate thereby forming an implanted region and an unimplanted region in the substrate. The method may further include oxidizing the substrate using a wet oxidation process, the wet oxidation process and n-type dopant causing a ratio of oxidation of the implanted region to the unimplanted region to be 2:1 or greater, and then removing the oxidized portions of the substrate thereby leaving an alignment feature proximate the implanted region.

A semiconductor device includes one or more LDMOS transistors and one of more SCR-LDMOS transistors. Each LDMOS transistor includes a LDMOS well of a first conductivity type, a LDMOS source region of a second conductivity type formed in the LDMOS well, and a LDMOS drain region of a second conductivity type separated from the LDMOS well by a LDMOS drift region of the second conductivity type. Each SCR-LDMOS transistor comprising a SCR-LDMOS well of the first conductivity type, a SCR-LDMOS source region of the second conductivity type formed in the SCR-LDMOS well, a SCR-LDMOS drain region of a second conductivity type, and a anode region of the first conductivity type between the SCR-LDMOS drain region and the SCR-LDMOS drift region. The anode region is separated from the SCR-LDMOS well by a SCR-LDMOS drift region of the second conductivity type.

A drain-extended metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor (40) with improved robustness in breakdown characteristics is disclosed. Field oxide isolation structures (29c) are disposed between the source region (30) and drain contact regions (32a, 32b, 32c) to break the channel region of the transistor into parallel sections. The gate electrode (35) extends over the multiple channel regions, and the underlying well (26) and thus the drift region (DFT) of the transistor extends along the full channel width. Channel stop doped regions (33) underlie the field oxide isolation structures (29c), and provide conductive paths for carriers during breakdown. Parasitic bipolar conduction, and damage due to that conduction, is therefore avoided.

The present invention provides, in one embodiment, a transistor (100). The transistor (100) comprises a doped semiconductor substrate (105) and a gate structure (110) over the semiconductor substrate (105), the gate structure (110) having a gate corner (125). The transistor (100) also includes a drain-extended well (115) surrounded by the doped semiconductor substrate (105). The drain-extended well (115) has an opposite dopant type as the doped semiconductor substrate (105). The drain-extended well (115) also has a low-doped region (145) between high-doped regions (150), wherein an edge of the low-doped region (155) is substantially coincident with a perimeter (140) defined by the gate corner (125). Other embodiments of the present invention include a method of manufacturing a transistor (200) and an integrated circuit (300).
摘要:
A transistor can be fabricated to exhibit reduced channel hot carrier effects. According to one aspect of the present invention, a method for fabricating a transistor structure includes implanting a first dopant into a lightly doped drain (LDD) region to form a shallow region therein. The first dopant penetrates the substrate to a depth that is less than the LDD junction depth. A second dopant is implanted into the substrate beyond the LDD junction depth to form a source/drain region. The implantation of the second dopant overpowers a substantial portion of the first dopant to define a floating ring in the LDD region that mitigates channel hot carrier effects.
