A high voltage vertical field effect transistor device (101) is fabricated in a substrate (102, 104) using angled implantations (116, 120) into trench sidewalls formed above recessed gate poly layers (114) to form self-aligned N+ regions (123) adjacent to the trenches and along an upper region of an elevated substrate. With a trench fill insulator layer (124) formed over the recessed gate poly layers (114), self-aligned P+ body contact regions (128) are implanted into the elevated substrate without counter-doping the self-aligned N+ regions (123), and a subsequent recess etch removes the elevated substrate, leaving self-aligned N+ source regions (135-142) and P+ body contact regions (130-134).

A TMOS device (10) is formed using a semiconductor layer (16) of a first type. First and second regions (62,64) of the second type are formed in the semiconductor layer and are spaced apart. A third region (68) is formed in the semiconductor layer by implanting. The third region is between and contacts the first and second doped regions, is of the second conductivity type, and is less heavily doped than the first and second doped regions. A gate stack (67) is formed over a portion of the first doped region, a portion of the second doped region, and the third doped region. By implanting after forming the gate stack, fourth and fifth regions (98,100) of the first type are formed in interior portions of the first and second doped regions, respectively. The third region being of the same conductivity type as the first and second regions reduces Miller capacitance.

摘要:
A power MOSFET has a main-FET (MFET) and an embedded current sensing-FET (SFET). MFET gate runners are coupled to SFET gate runners by isolation gate runners (IGRs) in a buffer space between the MFET and the SFET. In one embodiment, n IGRs (i=1 to n) couple n+1 gates of a first portion of the MFET (304) to n gates of the SFET. The IGRs have zigzagged central portions where each SFET gate runner is coupled via the IGRs to two MFET gate runners. The zigzagged central portions provide barriers that block parasitic leakage paths, between sources of the SFET and sources of the MFET, for all IGRs except the outboard sides of the first and last IGRs. These may be blocked by increasing the body doping in regions surrounding the remaining leakage paths. The IGRs have substantially no source regions.
