    摘要: A number of modified lateral DMOS (LDMOS) transistor arrays are formed and tested to determine if a measured value, such as a series on-resistance, substrate current, breakdown voltage, and reliability, satisfies process alignment requirements. The modified LDMOS transistor arrays are similar to standard LDMOS transistor arrays such that the results of the modified LDMOS transistor arrays can be used to predict the results of the standard LDMOS transistor arrays.

    摘要: An LDMOS structure which provides for reduced hot carrier effects. The reduction in hot carrier effects is achieved by increasing the size of the drain region of the LDMOS relative to the size of the source region. The larger size of the drain region reduces the concentration of electrons entering the drain region. This reduction in the concentration of electrons reduces the number of impact ionizations, which in turn reduces the hot carrier effects. The overall performance of the LDMOS is improved by reducing the hot carrier effects.

    摘要: An LDMOS array includes an array of alternating source regions and drain regions formed in a semiconductor substrate to define a checkerboard pattern of source and drain regions. A source contact is formed in electrical contact with each of the source regions in the array to connect the source regions in parallel. A drain contact is formed in electrical contact with each of the drain regions in the array to connect the drain regions in parallel. A drain ring is formed around the periphery of the checkerboard pattern and in electrical contact with the drain contact, providing redistribution of the current flow within the LDMOS array and thereby allowing safer hot carrier operation at higher biases than with the conventional layout.
