Problems solved by technology

When the device is used in high-voltage applications, the on-resistance rises sharply, which limits the application of high-voltage devices in high-voltage power integrated circuits, especially circuits that require low conduction loss and small chip area
In order to overcome the problem of high on-resistance, J.A.APPLES et al. proposed RESURF (Reduced SURface Field) to reduce the surface field technology, which is widely used in high-voltage devices. Although the buried layer added by triple RESURF effectively reduces the conduction Resistance, but there is a JFET region between the buried layer in the drift region and the channel body region, and the unsaturated region current of the device needs to be further improved

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor power devices, in particular to a lateral high voltage device. Background technique [0002] Lateral high-voltage devices are an essential part of the development of high-voltage power integrated circuits. High-voltage power devices require high breakdown voltage, low on-resistance and low switching loss. To achieve a high breakdown voltage of a lateral high voltage device, the drift region used to withstand the voltage is required to have a long size and low doping concentration, but in order to meet the low on-resistance of the device, the drift region as a current channel is required to have a high doping concentration. In the design of power LDMOS (Latral Double-diffusedMOSFET) devices, breakdown voltage (Breakdown Voltage, BV) and specific on-resistance (Specific on-resistance, R on,sp ) has a contradictory relationship. When the device is used in high-voltage applications, the on-re...
