    摘要: Devices and methods of forming an integrated circuit (IC) that offer protection against ESD in high voltage (HV) circuit applications are disclosed. A device includes N ones of a field effect transistor (FET) stacked in series to provide an N-level stack, where N is an integer greater than 1. A first pad of the device is coupled to a first FET and a second pad is coupled to an Nth FET. The device also includes a stacked/distributed RC control circuit configured to cause a short circuit between the first pad and the second pad in response to an ESD event. During the ESD event, the RC control circuit is configured to concurrently provide sufficient voltage to control the N ones of the FET by turning them on using parasitic conduction to cause the short circuit.

    摘要: Devices and methods for forming a device are presented. A substrate with lightly doped first polarity type dopants is provided. A buried layer with heavily doped second polarity type dopants is formed in a top portion of the substrate. An epitaxial layer is formed over the buried layer. Deep trench isolation (DTI) regions which extend from top surface of the epitaxial layer to a portion of the substrate are formed. The DTI regions isolate different buried regions defined in the buried layer. Sinker tap regions which at least partially surround sides of the DTI regions and extend from the epitaxial layer into a portion of the buried layer are formed. The sinker tap region connects sinker taps to the buried layer. Shallow trench isolation (STI) regions are formed in the epitaxial layer. At least one transistor is formed on the epitaxial layer,

    摘要: Semiconductor device isolation and method of forming thereof are presented. A base substrate with lightly doped first polarity type dopants is provided. A buried layer with heavily doped second polarity type dopants is formed in a top portion of the substrate while an epitaxial layer is formed over the buried layer. First and second type deep trench isolation (DTI) structures which extend from surface of the epitaxial layer to a portion of the base substrate are formed to isolate different device regions defined in the substrate. The first and second type DTI structures have different width dimensions. Shallow trench isolation (STI) regions are formed in the epitaxial layer and at least one transistor is formed on the epitaxial layer. The first and second type DTI structures effectively isolate the transistor from other device regions and enhances the breakdown voltage.
