    摘要: An electrostatic discharge (ESD) device with a parasitic silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) structure and controllable holding current is provided. A first distance is kept between a first N+ doped region and a first P+ doped region, and a second distance is kept between a second P+ doped region and a third N+ doped region. In addition, the holding current of the ESD device can be set to a specific value by modulating the first distance and the second distance. The holding current is in inverse proportion to the first distance and the second distance.

    摘要: The isolated high-voltage LDMOS transistor according to the present invention includes a split N-well and P-well in the extended drain region. The P-well is split in the extended drain region of the N-well to form a split junction-field in the N-well. The split N-well and P-well deplete the drift region, which shifts the electric field maximum into the bulk of the N-well. This achieves a higher breakdown voltage and allows the N-well to have a higher doping density. Furthermore, the LDMOS transistor according to the present invention includes a N-well embedded beneath the source diffusion region. This creates a low-impedance path for the source region, which restricts the transistor current flow between the drain region and the source region.

    摘要: A high voltage LDMOS transistor according to the present invention includes at least one P-field block in the extended drain region of the N-well. The P-field blocks form junction-fields in the N-well for equalizing the capacitance of parasitic capacitors between the drain region and the source region and fully deplete the drift region before breakdown occurs. A higher breakdown voltage is therefore achieved and the N-well having a higher doping density is thus allowed. The source region and P-field blocks enclose the drain region, which makes the LDMOS transistor self-isolated.

    摘要: An electrostatic discharge (ESD) device has a parasitic SCR structure and a controllable trigger voltage. The controllable trigger voltage of the ESD device is achieved by modulating a distance between an edge of a lightly doped well and an edge of a heavily doped region located at two ends of the lightly doped well. Since the distance and the trigger voltage are linearly proportional, the trigger voltage can be set to a specific value from a minimum value to a maximum value.

    摘要: An electrostatic discharge (ESD) device, which functions like a diode during normal IC operation and like a SCR during an electrostatic discharge event, is provided. To form an equivalent SCR structure, the ESD device includes a plurality of N+ regions and a plurality of P+ regions formed inside an N-well. The P+ regions and the N+ regions are formed adjacent to each other in a sequence, and the regions located at both ends of the sequence are the N+ regions. In addition, the ESD device is integrated with a pad and is formed under the pad. Furthermore, since the pad has a large surface area and is plated to be a good electrical conductor, the current distribution in the ESD device is uniform.
