Abstract

In this study, the electrical characteristics of high-voltage LDMOSFET fabricated by the existing CMOS technology were investigated depending on its process and design parameter. In order to verify the experimental data, two-dimensional device simulation was carried out simultaneously. The off- state breakdown voltages of n-channel LDMOSFETs were increased nearly in proportional to the drift region length. For the case of decreasing n-well ion implant doses from $1.0\times{10}^{13}/cm^2$ to $1.0\times{10}^{12}/cm^2$, the off-state breakdown voltage was increased approximately two times. The on-resistance was also increased about 76 %. From 2-D simulation, the increase in the breakdown voltage was attributed to a reduction in the maximum electric field of LDMOS imolanted with low dose as well as to a shift toward n+ drain region. Moreover, the on- and off-state breakdown voltages were also linearly increased with increasing the channel to n-tub spacing due to the reduction of impact ionization at the drift region. The experimental and design data of these high-voltage LDMOS devices can widely applied to design smart power ICs with low-voltage CMOS control and high-voltage driving circuits on the same chip.
