Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of semiconductor devices, and more specifically, to an electrostatic protection device and a terminal device. Background Art
[0002] As the process size of semiconductor devices continues to shrink and the application environment of circuits becomes increasingly complex, the frequency and impact of integrated circuits facing electrostatic discharge (ESD) are increasing. At the interface end of consumer electronics applications, such as DVI (Digital Visual Interface), VGA (Video Graphics Array Interface), USB (Universal Serial Bus), HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface), etc., are often subject to ESD impacts. With the continuous improvement of the requirements for data transmission speed and information transmission integrity, the requirements for ESD protection devices are also getting higher and higher.
[0003] Figure 1 It is a four-channel low-capacitance ESD array structure. This device achieves the purpose of reducing capacitance by connecting the derating diodes D1 and Dz in series. The overall capacitance of this device is determined by the derating diode D1 and the derating diode D2. Figure 2 It is the cross-sectional structure of the four-channel low-capacitance ESD array structure (only two of the I / Os are shown). A surge discharge channel is formed between the I / O and GND through the P+ implantation region, N-epi epitaxial layer, NBL buried layer to the P-SUB substrate; a surge discharge channel is formed between different I / Os through P+, N-epi, NBL, P-SUB to the middle of the N-epi and N+ implantation regions; a surge discharge channel is formed between Vcc and GND through N+, N-epi, NBL to the middle of the substrate. However, in the currently commonly used four-channel low-capacitance ESD structure, when a positive surge is applied to Vcc, through N+, N-epi, NBL to P-SUB, although an inverse breakdown diode will be formed between NBL and P-SUB, due to passing through the N-epi high-resistance region, it will cause a relatively large dynamic resistance after the device is in the breakdown state, and further cause a relatively large clamping voltage, and finally it is easy to cause the IC to burn out during the subsequent protection process.

This electrostatic protection device can achieve a flyback characteristic and reduce the clamping voltage through a short-circuit design, so as to avoid the failure of the backend IC due to the influence of electrostatic or surge current.
[0039] Among them, the above-mentioned buried layers 20 are located on the substrate 10, and the buried layers 20 include a plurality of them. Please refer to Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the doping type of the buried layer 20 is different from that of the substrate 10.
[0040] The epitaxial layer 30 is located on the buried layer 20, and the epitaxial layer 30 covers the buried layer 20 and the exposed substrate 10. The doping type of the epitaxial layer 30 is the same as that of the buried layer 20.
[0041] The above-mentioned multiple first doping regions 41, multiple second doping regions 42, and short-circuit doping region 43 are all formed within the epitaxial layer 30 and above the epitaxial layer 30, that is, the upper end surfaces of the multiple first doping regions 41, multiple second doping regions 42, and short-circuit doping region 43 are flush with the upper end surface of the epitaxial layer 30, as Figure 3 shown.
[0042] Multiple trench isolation regions 50 are further provided within the epitaxial layer 30. Among them, the multiple trench isolation regions 50 can isolate multiple functional regions on the epitaxial layer 30. The multiple functional regions include a first functional region A, a second functional region B, and a third functional region C. It should be noted that the specific number of the multiple functional regions is not limited in this application. For example, when multiple input / output ports I / O are required, correspondingly, multiple second functional regions B and third functional regions C are needed. This application Figure 3 illustrates with two input / output ports I / O as an example, and it is not a specific limitation on the number of input / output ports I / O.
[0043] In this embodiment, the second functional region B is located between the first functional region A and the third functional region C. Two first doping regions 41 and a short-circuit doping region 43 located between the two first doping regions 41 are provided within the first functional region A. A second doping region 42 is provided within the second functional region B, and a first doping region 41 is provided within the third functional region C, as Figure 3 shown.
[0044] Among them, the doping types of the above-mentioned first doping region 41 and second doping region 42 are different, and the doping type of the first doping region 41 is the same as that of the substrate 10, and the doping type of the second doping region 42 is the same as that of the epitaxial layer 30. That is to say, the substrate 10 and the first doping region 41 adopt the first doping type, and the buried layer 20, the epitaxial layer 30, and the second doping region 42 adopt the second doping type. For example, the first doping type is P-type, and the second doping type is N-type; or the first doping type is N-type, and the second doping type is P-type.
[0045] The first electrode 61 and the second electrode 62 are both located on the side of the epitaxial layer 30 away from the substrate 10, and the third electrode 63 is located on the side of the substrate 10 away from the epitaxial layer 30. In this embodiment, the first electrode 61 is located on the first functional region A and is connected to the short-circuit doping region 43. The second electrode 62 is located on the first functional region A, the second functional region B, and the third functional region C, and the second electrode 62 is respectively connected to the first doping region 41 near the second functional region B in the first functional region A, the second doping region 42 of the second functional region B, and the first doping region 41 of the third functional region C, as Figure 3 shown.
[0046] It should be noted that the second electrode 62 is used to connect the input port I / O. For example, if two parallel circuits are required, the second electrode 62 includes two, and the two second electrodes 62 are respectively used to connect the input ports I / O of the two circuits; if four parallel circuits are required, the second electrode 62 includes four, and the four second electrodes 62 are respectively used to connect the input ports I / O of the four circuits.
[0047] The above-mentioned first electrode 61 is used to connect the power supply port VCC, and the third electrode 63 is used to connect the ground port GND.
[0048] In this embodiment, the substrate 10 is heavily doped, and the epitaxial layer 30 is lightly doped. The first doping region 41, the second doping region 42, and the short-circuit doping region 43 are all heavily doped.
[0049] It should be noted that the short-circuit doping region 43 includes a first part and a second part that are short-circuited, and the doping types of the first part and the second part are different. Assuming that the first part is of the first doping type and the second part is of the second doping type, at this time, a triode with an open base region and a diode can be formed in parallel to form a forward surge and electrostatic discharge channel, as Figure 11 and Figure 12 . Among them, the first part of the short-circuit doping region 43 in the first functional region A, the epitaxial layer 30, the buried layer 20, and the substrate 10 form a triode with an open base region; the second part of the short-circuit doping region 43, the epitaxial layer 30, the buried layer 20, and the substrate 10 form a diode. The parallel connection of the two (i.e., the triode and the diode) can be realized through the first electrode 61 above the short-circuit doping region 43, as Figure 12 shown. When a forward surge or static electricity is applied to the first electrode 61, the triode with an open base region functions, and the flyback characteristic can be realized; when a negative surge or static electricity is applied to the first electrode 61, the diode functions.
[0050] In summary, the electrostatic protection device provided by the present application includes a substrate 10, a plurality of buried layers 20 located on a part of the substrate 10, an epitaxial layer 30 located on the buried layers 20 and the exposed substrate 10, a plurality of first doping regions 41 and a plurality of second doping regions 42 located in the epitaxial layer 30, a short-circuit doping region 43 located in the epitaxial layer 30, a plurality of trench isolation regions 50 for isolating a plurality of functional regions on the epitaxial layer 30, a first electrode 61, a second electrode 62, and a third electrode 63; the plurality of functional regions include a first functional region A, a second functional region B, and a third functional region C, and the second functional region B is located between the first functional region A and the third functional region C; two first doping regions 41 and a short-circuit doping region 43 located between the two first doping regions 41 are provided in the first functional region A, a second doping region 42 is provided in the second functional region B, and a first doping region 41 is provided in the third functional region C; the first electrode 61 is located on the epitaxial layer 30 and is connected to the short-circuit doping region 43, the second electrode 62 is located on the epitaxial layer 30, and the second electrode 62 is connected to the second doping region 42 of the second functional region B, the first doping region 41 of the third functional region C, and a first doping region 41 close to the second doping region 42 among the first doping regions 41, and the third electrode 63 is located on the side of the substrate 10 away from the epitaxial layer 30; the substrate 10 and the first doping region 41 adopt a first doping type, and the buried layer 20, the epitaxial layer 30, and the second doping region 42 adopt a second doping type. By providing the short-circuit doping region 43 in the first functional region A in the present application, thus, a part of the short-circuit doping region 43 can form a triode with an open base region with the epitaxial layer 30, the buried layer 20, and the substrate 10; another part of the short-circuit doping region 43 can form a diode with the epitaxial layer 30, the buried layer 20, and the substrate 10. The parallel connection of the two can be achieved through the first electrode 61 above the short-circuit doping region 43. At this time, when a positive surge or static electricity is applied to the first electrode 61, the triode with an open base region functions, and the flyback characteristic can be achieved; when a negative surge or static electricity is applied to the first electrode 61, the diode can function. Through the above settings, the present application can enable the electrostatic protection device to achieve the flyback characteristic and reduce the clamping voltage, so as to avoid the failure of the backend IC due to the influence of static electricity or surge current.
[0051] In a feasible implementation, the short-circuit doping region 43 includes a third doping region 431 and two fourth doping regions 432. The two fourth doping regions 432 are respectively connected to opposite sides of the third doping region 431; the doping type of the third doping region 431 is the same as that of the substrate 10. By providing the short-circuit doping region 43 within the first functional region A, a triode with an open base and a diode can be formed in parallel to form a forward surge and electrostatic discharge channel. Among them, the third doping region 431, the epitaxial layer 30, the buried layer 20, and the substrate 10 within the short-circuit doping region 43 in the first functional region A form a triode with an open base; the fourth doping region 432, the epitaxial layer 30, the buried layer 20, and the substrate 10 in the short-circuit doping region 43 form a diode. The parallel connection of the two can be achieved through the first electrode 61 above the short-circuit doping region 43, as Figure 12 shown. When a forward surge or static electricity is applied to the first electrode 61, the triode with an open base comes into play, and the flyback characteristic can be achieved; when a negative surge or static electricity is applied to the first electrode 61, the diode comes into play.
[0052] Optionally, the doping concentrations of the first doping region 41, the second doping region 42, and the substrate 10 are respectively greater than the doping concentration of the epitaxial layer 30. That is to say, in this embodiment, the first doping region 41, the second doping region 42, and the substrate 10 are all heavily doped, and the epitaxial layer 30 is lightly doped.
[0053] For example, optionally, the ion implantation doses of the first doping region 41 and the second doping region 42 are respectively in the range of 1×10 15 / cm 2 to 5×10 16 / cm 2 ; and / or, the ion implantation energies of the first doping region 41 and the second doping region 42 are respectively in the range of 30 keV to 120 keV. It should be noted that the ion implantation doses of the first doping region 41 and the second doping region 42 can be the same or different. Similarly, the ion implantation energies of the first doping region 41 and the second doping region 42 can also be the same or different, and the present application does not limit this.
[0054] The ion implantation dose of the buried layer 20 is in the range of 1×10 14 / cm 2 to 1×10 16 / cm 2 ; and / or, the ion implantation energy of the buried layer 20 is in the range of 20 keV to 120 keV. For example, the ion implantation dose of the buried layer 20 can be 1×10 14 / cm 2 , 1×10 15 / cm 2 or 1×10 16 / cm 2etc. The ion implantation energy of the buried layer 20 can be 20 KeV, 30 KeV, 50 KeV, or 120 KeV, etc.
[0055] Optionally, the resistivity of the substrate 10 is between 0.01 Ω·cm and 0.001 Ω·cm. For example, the resistivity of the substrate 10 is 0.001 Ω·cm, 0.002 Ω·cm, 0.005 Ω·cm, 0.008 Ω·cm, 0.01 Ω·cm, etc.
[0056] The resistivity of the epitaxial layer 30 is between 50 Ω·cm and 1000 Ω·cm. For example, the resistivity of the epitaxial layer 30 is 50 Ω·cm, 100 Ω·cm, 300 Ω·cm, 500 Ω·cm, 800 Ω·cm, or 1000 Ω·cm, etc.
[0057] The thickness of the epitaxial layer 30 is between 8 μm and 20 μm. For example, the thickness of the epitaxial layer 30 is 8 μm, 10 μm, 15 μm, or 20 μm, etc.
[0058] To make the performance of the electrostatic protection device better, in this embodiment, optionally, the trench depth of the trench isolation region 50 is greater than the depletion layer width of the diode formed by the epitaxial layer 30 and the substrate 10 at reverse breakdown.

[0070] On the other hand, the present utility model provides a terminal device, which includes the above-mentioned electrostatic protection device. The first electrode 61 of the electrostatic protection device is used as the power supply port VCC of the terminal device, the second electrode 62 of the electrostatic protection device is used as the input port I / O of the terminal device, and the third electrode 63 of the electrostatic protection device is used as the ground port GND of the terminal device. Among them, the specific structure and technical effects of the above-mentioned electrostatic protection device have been elaborated and described in detail in the foregoing text, so they will not be repeated herein.
[0071] It should be noted that the number of the second electrodes 62 of the electrostatic protection device can be determined according to the number of the input ports I / O. For example, when the input ports I / O include four (respectively I / O1, I / O2, I / O3, and I / O4), correspondingly, the second electrodes 62 are also four. Correspondingly, the second functional region B and the third functional region C also include four. Those skilled in the art can simply deduce according to the foregoing description and will not be repeated herein.
[0072] The terminal device provided by this application is provided with an electrostatic protection device, and this electrostatic protection device adopts a short-circuit design. In this way, the electrostatic protection device can form a parallel-connected diode and a triode with an open-base region. In this way, when a positive surge or static electricity is applied to the first electrode 61, the triode with an open-base region can function to achieve a flyback characteristic; when a negative surge or static electricity is applied to the first electrode 61, the diode can function. Through the above settings, this application can enable the terminal device to achieve a flyback characteristic and reduce the clamping voltage to avoid the failure of the backend IC due to the influence of static electricity or surge current.
[0073] The above are only optional embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various changes and modifications. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0074] In addition, it should be noted that, in the case of no contradiction, the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the present invention will not separately describe various possible combination methods.
