    摘要: Arrangements are described for correcting the voltage coefficient of resistance (VCR) of resistors integral with a semiconductor body and, more particularly, for correcting the VCR of resistors implanted in a semi-conductor body. Resistors typically comprising a resistive region of a first conductivity type formed in an isolated layer of opposite conductivity type which isolated layer, in general, includes an epitaxial layer passivated by a dielectric layer. A metal layer is formed on the dielectric layer and covers, at least partially, the resistive layer. The metal layer is brought to a suitable potential to produce opposite variations in the resistance with respect to variations created by the epitaxial layer.

    摘要: The base circuit comprises a self-referenced preamplifier (31) of the differential type connected between first and second supply voltages and a push-pull output buffer stage connected between second and third supply voltages. The push-pull output buffer stage comprises a pull-up transistor and a pull-down transistor connected in series with the circuit output node coupled therebetween. These transistors are driven by complementary and substantially simultaneous signals S and S supplied by the preamplifier. Both branches of the preamplifier are tied at a first output node (M). The first branch comprises a logic block performing the desired logic function of the base circuit that is connected through a load rsistor to the second supply voltage. The logic block consists of three parallel-connected input NPN transistors, whose emitters are coupled together at the first output node for NOR operation. The second branch is comprised of a biasing/coupling block connected to the second supply voltage and coupled to the first output node and to the base (B) node of the pull-down transistor. This block ensures both the appropriate polarization of the nodes in DC without the need of external reference voltage generators and a low impedance path for fast signal transmission of the output signal from node M to node B in AC, when input transistors of the logic block are ON. and base nodes. An anti-saturation block (AB), consisting typically of a Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD), is useful to prevent saturation of the pull down transistor (TDN) to further speed up the circuit.

    摘要: According to the present invention, a CMOS interface circuit (C2) similar to a latch made by two CMOS cross coupled inverters (INV1, INV2) is placed directly on the output node (14) of conventional BICMOS logic circuit (11) operating alone in a partial swing mode. This latch is made of four FETs P5, P6, N8, N9 cross-coupled in a conventional way with the feedback loop connected to said output node (14). The partial voltage swing (VBE to VH-VBE) naturally given by the output bipolar transistors (T1, T2) mounted in a push pull configuration is reinforced to full swing (GND to VH) by the latch at the end of each transition. The state of the output node if forced by the latch because of the high driving capability due to the presence of said output bipolar transistors (T1, T2). As a result, the improved BICMOS logic circuit (D2) has an output signal (S) that ranges within the desired full swing voltage at the output terminal (15). It is a characteristic of this embodiment that the structure of CMOS interface (C2) is always independent of the logic function implemented in the conventional BICMOS logic circuit (11). More generally, the CMOS interface circuit may have various physical implementations, however, it is always comprised of CMOS FETs and it becomes active at least in one of the GND to VBE or (VH-BE) to VH range.
