An IC device comprising a junction type field effect transistor of a back gate type and a bipolar device such as a bipolar transistor and a resistor made of impurity diffused region, wherein an extremely thin (in the order of 0.05-0.2 .mu.m) impurity doped surface region of a conductivity type same as that of a back gate region is formed at the surface of a surface channel region, and is separated from at least a drain region to sustain high breakdown voltage between gate region and the drain region; the impurity surface region serving to reduce noise and also enabling to achieve satisfactory characteristics of J-FET and also good ohmic characteristics of the resistor.
摘要:
A parallel type A/D converter capable of operating at an extremely high speed with a high degree of accuracy and with low power consumption. A plurality of comparators each having a reference voltage corresponding to an assigned quantizing level are disposed in parallel with each other and divided into a plurality of comparator blocks or groups. A plurality of sub-comparators are provided so that prior to the comparison of the input signal by the comparators, the input signal is first compared with the reference voltages of the sub-comparators and in response to the output from the sub-comparator having the reference voltage comparable or corresponding to the incoming input signal, only the comparators in the comparator block or group associated with said sub-comparator are energized or enabled while the remaining comparators are kept de-energized or disabled, whereby a minimum power consumption may be attained.

In a stacked, multilayer IIL (integrated injection logic) circuit, with which power consumption can be significantly reduced, a discharging circuit constructed of an IIL constant-current circuit or of a resistor is provided for one of transistors which are used for shifting the level of a signal from an IIL circuit of a top layer to an IIL circuit of a bottom layer, so that signal transmission therebetween is prevented from deterioration. A charging circuit may be added to another transistor, while a diode may be interposed between these transistors. Additional diodes may be interposed between adjacent layers for speeding up the signal transmission from one layer to another upper layer.

In a semiconductor IC, a vertical pnp or npn transistor of a uniform characteristic and a high breakdown voltage is made by forming, for example, a p.sup.- -collector region (39) in an n-type epitaxial region, an n-well base region (41) formed in the p.sup.- -collector region (39) and a p-emitter region (42) formed in the n-well base region (41); and furthermore, for example as shown in FIG. 9, p.sup.- -regions (40) and (49) are formed simultaneously with the p.sup.- -collector region (39) and an n-region (53) is formed simultaneously with the n-well base region (41), thereby constituting IIL of superior characteristics and a high resistance device at the same time as forming of the vertical transistor without substantial increase of manufacturing steps; and in the similar way, by combining the p.sup.- -region and n-region formed in the above-mentioned simultaneous steps with other region formed simultaneously with the forming of the vertical transistor, high h.sub.FE transistor, high speed vertical npn transistor, cross-over devices, p-channel and/or n-channel MOS transistors can be formed within limited manufacturing steps.

A first logic circuit comprises coupling gate circuits driven by clock pulses of different phases, flip-flop circuits cascade-connected via the coupling gate circuits and feedback circuits for feeding back the outputs of the flip-flop circuits to the preceding stage flip-flop circuits, and generates pulse sequences of different phases. A second logic circuit further comprises latch circuits one for each of the flip-flop circuits, driven by the pulse sequences generated by the first logic circuit. Those logic circuits are useful to a successive approximation register of a successive approximation A/D converter.

摘要:
A semiconductor integrated circuit device in which the side surfaces of an emitter of an oxide isolated bipolar transistor are surrounded with insulating compounds or regions so that the capacitance between the emitter and base is lowered and a base is formed by the self-alignment so that the influence of an active base between an external base and the emitter can be made negligible. Thus the base resistance and parasitic capacitance are lowered.

A dynamic logic gate includes a precharge device for precharging the logic gate in synchronism with a clock; a partial logic gate arranged such that, depending on the logic states of the logic inputs, current is allowed to flow between its two terminals or is cut off; a bipolar transistor whose emitter is grounded, and a discharge device for discharging the charge stored in the base of the bipolar transistor during the precharge period. The logic gate speeds up the logic operation by suddenly discharging the load capacity of the circuitry by supplying the conducting current of the partial logic gate to the bipolar transistor base and using the high speed current amplification action of the bipolar transistor.
