摘要： An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection network for power MOSFETs includes parallel branches, containing polysilicon zener diodes and resistors, used for protecting the gate from rupture caused by high voltages caused by ESD. The branches may have the same or independent paths for voltage to travel across from the gate region into the semiconductor substrate. Specifically, the secondary branch has a higher breakdown voltage than the primary branch so that the voltage is shared across the two branches of the protection network. The ESD protection network of the device provides a more effective design without increasing the space used on the die. The ESD protection network can also be used with other active and passive devices such as thyristors, insulated-gate bipolar transistors, and bipolar junction transistors.

摘要： A method of forming a charge balance MOSFET includes the following steps. A substrate with an overlying epitaxial layer both of a first conductivity type, are provided. A gate trench extending through the epitaxial layer and terminating within the substrate is formed. A shield dielectric lining sidewalls and bottom surface of the gate trench is formed.
