{"title":"A fast 1024-bit bipolar RAM using JFET load devices","authors":"M. Phan, J. Shier, A.

In recent years several quite promising new approaches to this problem have been developed, including: (1) very high value P-type resistors made by ion implantation (2) the use of lateral PNP transistors to supply and limit the operating current ( 12L) and (3) various kinds of vacuumdeposited resistive materials. The JFET loads to be presented provide yet another way of achieving very compact load elements in bipolar integrated circuits. The JFET loads use the lightlydoped N-type channels which appear under the isolation oxide in an oxide-isolated structure employing an N-type epitaxial layer. These channels arise from the preferential segregation of the dopant during the growth of the isolation oxide’ and have been found to be stable and reproducible. The delineation of the load device is accomplished by a masked P type doping step made prior to epitaxial growth, with the P regions serving as channel stoppers between isolated devices. A load device is produced by simply omitting the channel stopper between two N regions to be connected to the load and thus is physically located in the isolation regions an aspect which substantially improves the circuit density by using space wasted in most bipolar structures; Figures 1 and 4. The load device is best described as a substrate-gate JFET (Figure 2) with many advantages: (1) it is very compact, equivalent resistances of 1 Mi?, being realized in 1 t o 2 mil2 area (including the channel stoppers), (2) i t behaves like a constant-current source, rather like the depletion loads u ed in MOS devices but without the need for gate metalization over it, (3) it connects readily to any part of a transistor collector region without the need for contacts or metalization, (4) its position under thick oxide minimizes parasitic capacitance and sensitivity to potentials of the overlying metalization, ( 5 ) the light doping level in substrate and load gives a low capacitance to substrate, and (6) the sheet resistance and nonlinear properties of these loads can be varied over a very broad range by adjusting process parameters. The process, which provides very shallow double-diffused NPN transistors with washed emitters, PtSi Schottky diodes, and high-beta vertical PNP transistors, lends itself particularly well to the use of a diode-coupled cell for the main storage flipflops in an all-TTL RAM design. As a result a 1024-bit TTL RAM was chosen for the initial design using the JFET load 1 Grove, A S . , Leistiko, 0. and Sah, C.T., “Redistribution of Acceptor and Donor Impurities During Thermal Oxidation of Silicon”, J.

Included on a 1.39 x 1.59 mm chip are electronic gain control, 180’ phase switching, ECL line driver output, all biasing circuits and a one-shot LED driver. A functional block diagram is shown in Figure 1. The amplifier is composed of a cascade of three identical modified Gilbert gain cells’. The current gain of this type of circuit is set by the ratio of device input impedances which in turn are a function of their quiescent currents. Because the currents are added at the output of each stage, a cascade requires a geometric increase in the power dissipation for each additional stage. N t h even the first stage current constrained to be fairly high to obtain wide bandwidth, a cascade would be unreasonable. Modifying the gain cell by the addition of emitter resistors allows the input impedance and thus the current gain, to become independent of dc bias. Furthermore, this modification generally results in a substantial reduction in the mean squared output noise current (in2) since the expression is changed from:","PeriodicalId":416313,"journal":{"name":"1977 IEEE International Solid-State Circuits Conference.

Write cycle time of 1 0 11s and write-enable pulsewidth of 3.5 ns are also possible. The memory consists of four blocks of each 256 words x 1 bit, which can be independently selected by four block select terminals, and therefore, may be used as either a 256 words x 4 bits or a 1024 words x 1 bit device. New circuit techniques, involving especially address decoders and sense amplifiers, as well as passive isolation technology and shallow diffusion processing were most helpful in achieving improved speed performance; Figure 1. The decoding circuit links a feedback loop from the collector circuit to the base of the multi-emitter transistor in each AND gate to equalize dc current distribution to these AND gates via a single current switch; minized too is the effective input logic swing of these gates. Thus, current mode operation, through driving of plural AND gates by condensed switching current, results in a very short delay time of 2.5 ns from address input t o word driver output, according to computer simulation. The common-basemode transistor switches connected between bit lines and sense circuits and cross-coupling between truth and complement in each sensing circuit reduce the undesirable effects of stray capacitances, resulting in a high sensing speed. The bit line clamping circuit is effective in quick recovery of bit line potential. Combination of the passive isolation of IOP (Isolated by Oxide and Polysilicon) with V-groove and the shallow, selfaligning emitter diffusion technique of DOPOS2 (Doped Poly Silicon) has made it possible to fabricate high-speed switching transistors with low parasitic capacitances ( CEB = 0.03 pF, CCB = 0.10 pF and C c s = 0.20 pF), high hFE (about 100) and high fT (2.0 GHz).
