Embodiment 1

[0043] Such as image 3 As shown, the present invention provides an integrated circuit sealing ring, and the integrated circuit sealing ring at least includes:

[0044] A substrate layer 200 , a doped region 201 formed in the substrate layer 200 , a stacked structure of a dielectric layer and a metal layer formed on the doped region 201 , and a capacitor formed in the stacked structure.

The second polysilicon 203b and the third polysilicon 203c are respectively used as the first plate and the second p...

Embodiment 3

[0057] This embodiment provides an integrated circuit sealing ring. The structure of the integrated circuit sealing ring differs from the sealing rings in Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2 in that a metal plate is formed between any two adjacent metal layers.

[0058] Specifically, as Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, a metal plate 204 is formed in the dielectric layer between the second metal layer M2 and the third metal layer M3, and the metal plate 204 intersects with the second metal layer M2 The overlapping area forms the MIM capacitor. The second metal layer M2 and the metal plate 204 serve as the first plate and the second plate of the capacitor respectively, and the capacity of the capacitor is related to the distance between the second metal layer M2 and the metal plate 204 . In this embodiment, the second metal layer M2 serves as the lower plate of the capacitor, and is electrically connected to the substrate layer 200 through the connection hole V1, the first met...

Abstract

The invention provides a sealing ring of an integrated circuit. The sealing ring comprises a substrate layer, a doping region, a laminated structure of dielectric layers and metal layers, and a capacitor, wherein the doping region is formed in the substrate layer; the laminated structure of dielectric layer and metal layers is formed on the doping region, and the metal layers and the doping region realize electrical connection through connecting holes; the capacitor is formed in the laminated structure, and a first pole plate and a second pole plate of the capacitor are connected with a substrate and an internal circuit through the metal layers in the laminated structure and metal layers in a buffer region respectively. According to the sealing ring of the integrated circuit provided by the invention, under the condition of not influencing the area of the integrated circuit or changing the function and performance of the sealing ring, the structure of an existing sealing ring of the integrated circuit is improved, so that the integrated circuit meets the density requirement of polycrystalline silicon and adds a filtering performance at the same time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to an integrated circuit sealing ring. Background technique [0002] In a semiconductor manufacturing process, a semiconductor chip including a semiconductor active device and an interconnection structure disposed on the device can be formed on a semiconductor substrate through processes such as photolithography, etching, and deposition. Usually, multiple chips can be formed on a wafer, and finally these chips are cut off from the wafer, and integrated circuits are formed through a packaging process. [0003] During the process of dicing the chip, the stress generated by the dicing blade will cause damage to the edge of the chip, and even cause the chip to crack. In the prior art, in order to prevent the chip from being damaged during cutting, a sealing ring is provided around the active device area of ​​the internal circuit of the integrated circuit. The sealing ring can...
