Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of transistor design, and particularly to a novel bipolar transistor with strong magnetic field resistance, a control chip, and a manufacturing method of the transistor. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of integrated circuit technology, the feature size of chips has been continuously reduced, the integration degree has been significantly improved, and the performance and adaptability requirements of devices have also increased day by day. In addition to pursuing more efficient computing power, electronic devices also need to adapt to a variety of complex and harsh working environments, such as special conditions like space radiation, electromagnetic interference, high temperature and high humidity. In these harsh environments, strong magnetic field interference, especially pulsed strong magnetic field, has become a key challenge.

[0003] Pulsed strong magnetic field is one of the important physical environments generated during the operation of high-power devices such as electromagnetic railguns. During the launch process of an electromagnetic railgun, a large current will instantaneously pass through the coil, generating a strong pulsed magnetic field. The control chip needs to maintain stable operation in this environment. Therefore, how to improve the reliability of electronic components in a strong magnetic environment has become a research topic with great application value.

[0004] Regarding the improvement of the strong magnetic field resistance of electronic devices, the current main research direction focuses on magnetic shielding technology, that is, reducing the interference of the magnetic field to the lowest level through physical isolation. These technical solutions usually include magnetic shielding materials and magnetic shielding structures, covering high-permeability materials (such as iron-nickel alloys or soft magnetic materials) outside the device to absorb or deflect the magnetic field to protect the internal circuit, and designing a special packaging form to completely enclose the device in a magnetic shielding cover to isolate the external magnetic field. For example, Renesas Electronics Corporation once proposed an improved magnetic shielding packaging technology, which effectively improved the shielding ability of the device to the external magnetic field by embedding multiple layers of magnetic shielding materials in the chip packaging layer. However, such methods mainly solve the problem through physical isolation and do not improve the internal structure of semiconductor devices. To sum up, the existing technology mainly relies on external shielding means and lacks an optimization scheme for the internal structure of semiconductor devices. Summary of the Invention

[0018] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0019] In a strong magnetic field environment, especially under the action of a magnetic field in a specific sensitive direction, the movement direction of carriers in a traditional bipolar junction transistor (BJT) is greatly disturbed, resulting in a change in the electric field distribution of the BJT device, thus seriously affecting the amplification performance and stability of the device. For the anti-strong magnetic design of semiconductor devices, the existing protection methods mainly rely on magnetic shielding. This method is expensive, has low integration, and mainly focuses on the protection of high-frequency magnetic fields, and it is difficult to play an anti-strong magnetic role in the use environment of low-frequency and static magnetic fields.

[0020] The purpose of this application is to optimize the device structure, reduce the influence of the magnetic field on the performance of the BJT, and effectively improve its amplification factor stability and anti-magnetic interference ability in strong magnetic field environments with different frequencies.

[0021] This application provides a new type of bipolar junction transistor with anti-strong magnetic ability, including:

[0022] A P-type substrate 1, an N-type buried layer 2 stacked in sequence, and three first STI regions 3, a second STI region 4, an active region 5, and an N-type deep well 6 stacked on the side of the N-type buried layer away from the P-type substrate;

[0023] All three first STI regions 3 are arranged side by side on the side of the N-type buried layer 2 away from the P-type substrate 1;

[0024] The active region 5 and the N-type deep well 6 are arranged at intervals along the horizontal direction, and two of the first STI regions 3 are respectively located on the periphery of the active region 5 and the N-type deep well 6, where the horizontal direction is perpendicular to the stacking direction;

[0025] The active region 5 includes:

[0026] A collector 51, a base 52 stacked in sequence, and the second STI region 4 and an emitter 53 located on the side of the base 52 away from the collector 51. The second STI 4 region is located between the emitter 53 and the peripheral first STI region 3. The interface between the emitter 53 and the base 52 forms a BE junction, and the interface between the base 52 and the collector 51 forms a BC junction;

[0027] Among them, the depth of the three first STI regions 3 is greater than the depth of the active region 5 and the N-type deep well 6;

[0028] The depth of the second STI region 4 is greater than the depth of the BE junction.

[0029] The purpose of this application is to provide a BJT device structure and its manufacturing method for solving the problem of the decrease in the amplification factor of the BJT in a strong magnetic environment. The BJT device structure is as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, whereFigure 1 Shown is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the BJT device structure of the present application; Figure 2 The longitudinal cross-sectional view of the BJT device structure of the present application is shown. The BJT device structure of the present application at least comprises: a P-type substrate 1 (PSUB), an N-type buried layer 2 (DNW) located on the P-type substrate 1, an N-type deep well 6 (NW) located to the upper right of the N-type buried layer, and a first STI region 3; Figure 2 Yes Figure 1 The central region has an N region as a collector 51 ; the central region has a P region as a base, the central region has an N+ region as an emitter 53 , and the base 52 has a second STI region 4 .

[0030] This application has the following advantages:

[0031] 1. Double-depth STI design. Based on the traditional STI structure for isolation, a shallower STI structure was designed. By placing the double-depth STI on the left and right sides of the base region, the movement trajectory of electrons in the emission region is changed, and the base region electric field distribution is redivided, thereby optimizing device performance.

[0032] 2. Compatibility with mainstream BCD processes. The shallow trench isolation technology and ion implantation process used in this application are fully compatible with mainstream BCD processes, and can efficiently integrate BJT, MOS and DMOS devices to meet the needs of high-performance analog and power drive circuits.

[0033] 3. Performance optimization in strong magnetic field environment. Through specific structural design, the influence of strong magnetic field on BJT devices is effectively reduced, so that the decrease of BJT amplification factor in high magnetic field is significantly reduced, and the reliability and environmental adaptability of the device are enhanced.

[0034] As for the technology of anti-strong magnetic design, the previous technology all used magnetic shielding technology to protect the periphery of the chip, which increased the cost, reduced the integration, and made it difficult to shield the low-frequency magnetic field. This application is based on the consideration of improving the device structure, and invents a new structure using the existing BJT process to solve the magnetic field problem at the device level, without the need for redundant packaging, reducing costs, improving integration, and effectively reducing the impact of low-frequency magnetic fields and static magnetic fields.

[0035] refer to Figure 3 The dual-depth STI structure designed in this application has higher reliability in working under strong magnetic environment. Compared with the BJT with a single-depth STI of similar structure, the attenuation of collector current of the BJT in this application is suppressed under strong magnetic field, and the degree of attenuation of BJT amplification factor is reduced by 75%.

Among them, the bottoms of the three first STI regions 3 all extend into the N-type buried layer, and the depth of the second STI region is lower than the depth of the first STI region;

[0040] S40. Perform N-type heavy doping on the deep well between two first STIs 3 that do not have the second STI region 4 in the middle to obtain an N-type deep well 6, and the depth of the N-type deep well is less than the depth of the first STI.
