The utilization of SOI substrates for Power Integrated Circuits (PICs) is a promising solution for the accumulation of circuits, because a circuit can be more compact due to its smaller isolation space. However, to our knowledge, on the market, the layout design rule for low-voltage (LV) CMOS on PICs goes up to 3 /spl mu/m. We report that 1.3 /spl mu/m CMOS technology can be merged with high-voltage (HV) MOS transistors on one chip. Achieving high drive ability and low power dissipation, High voltage Gate-Double diffusion MOS (HG-DMOS) transistors are introduced on our PICs. This is succeeded by our original two layer polysilicon gate-one having a thin gate oxide (/spl sim/ 250 /spl Aring/) and the other having a thick gate oxide (/spl sim/2300 /spl Aring/)-process.","PeriodicalId":344728,"journal":{"name":"1997 IEEE International SOI Conference Proceedings","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125435588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analog MOS switch is one of the major building blocks in switched-data circuits (switched capacitor, current-copier, track-and-hold, etc.). Their main limitation regarding accuracy is linked to the problem of charge injection that induces output voltage errors. Several physical studies recently addressed the charge injection problem in bulk MOSFETs under low-voltage conditions (considering the weak inversion contribution) or in SOI MOSFETs under large voltage transients. In this paper we compare charge injection in bulk and SOI MOS switches from a low-voltage circuit point of view, using MEDICI 2-D simulations, for three different MOS processes: typical bulk with a threshold voltage (VT) of 0.72 V, comparable fully-depleted SOI with VT=0.74 V, and low-voltage SOI. Our analysis has demonstrated significant differences in the charge components injected by bulk and SOI MOS switches and their dependence on process and circuit conditions. In carefully optimized circuits, low-voltage fully depleted SOI MOS switches may inject much less charges than in bulk and enable better compensation results.","PeriodicalId":344728,"journal":{"name":"1997 IEEE International SOI Conference Proceedings","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122539130","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Extensive 2-D simulations on an advanced process and device simulator have been performed to study the carrier dynamics in the LDMOSFET. This allows for a better understanding of the means to reduce the device parasitics, that are a major factor limiting the RF performance of the transistor.
