A kind of element layout that improves layout efficiency and integrated level
Technical field
The present invention relates to the semiconductor design field, relate in particular to a kind of element layout that improves layout efficiency and integrated level.
Background technology
In the semiconductor design process, after completion logic and circuit design, just can carry out layout design (Layout Design).Layout design is the process that the circuit diagram that will design changes into concrete physical layout, its according to the logical and circuit function require, technological level requires and design rule is designed the reticle pattern of using for photoetching.Need define a lot of design rules during layout design, for example the distance (abbreviation device pitch) between the power MOS pipe source electrode of different rated voltages and the drain electrode is different or the varying in size etc. of the power MOS pipe drift region of different rated voltages.
When carrying out layout design, for the power MOS pipe that is operated in high pressure or high frequency, it is particularly important that its insulating Design seems.Now Chang Yong power MOS pipe is LDMOS transistor (Lateral Diffused Medal Oxide Semiconductor; Be called for short LDMOS), LDMOS be used in usually drive or on-off circuit on, it can isolate the single use use that also can a plurality ofly be connected in parallel.The device that comprises isolated LDMOS and/or a plurality of LDMOS that are connected in parallel is when carrying out layout design, need the isolation design that insulate between each included LDMOS and between LDMOS and other member, prior art usually by separate certain distance realize between LDMOS and and other member between the insulation isolation.
Above-mentioned by separate that certain distance realizes between LDMOS and and other member between insulation isolate the following problem that exists: at first, need define design rule at isolation distance, when the drain voltage of LDMOS is inequality, need at the different different isolation distances of drain voltage design, increase the complexity of layout design, reduced layout efficiency; Moreover, reach LDMOS and the spaced apart bigger distance of other member between all LDMOS and realize the insulation isolation, can reduce the integrated level of device.
Therefore, how to provide a kind of efficient that improves the element layout of layout efficiency and integrated level with raising layout design and Butut, and effectively improve the integrated level of device, become the technical matters that industry needs to be resolved hurrily.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of element layout that improves layout efficiency and integrated level, can improve layout efficiency, and effectively improve the integrated level of device by described domain.
The object of the present invention is achieved like this: a kind of element layout that improves layout efficiency and integrated level, this device comprises isolated LDMOS, this element layout comprises first isolation structure around the drain electrode of this isolated LDMOS, the ring of this first isolation structure directly be around the drain distance at center to source electrode center of LDMOS.
In the element layout of above-mentioned improved layout efficiency and integrated level, this first isolation structure comprises the parallel band that is set in parallel in the drain electrode both sides and is connected the parallel band end and the curved end of parallel band formation closed-loop.
The present invention also provides a kind of element layout that improves layout efficiency and integrated level, this device comprises a plurality of LDMOS that are connected in parallel, this element layout comprises second isolation structure around the drain electrode of all a plurality of LDMOS that are connected in parallel, the ring of this second isolation structure directly be around the distance at LDMOS drain electrode center to source electrode center.
In the element layout of above-mentioned improved layout efficiency and integrated level, this second isolation structure comprises the parallel band and the curved end that is looped around each drain electrode end and is connected successively in the drain electrode outside that is set in parallel in outermost two LDMOS among a plurality of LDMOS that are connected in parallel, and these a plurality of curved ends and parallel band form closed-loop.
In the element layout of above-mentioned improved layout efficiency and integrated level, these a plurality of LDMOS that are connected in parallel have identical rated operational voltage, and its drain electrode center is identical to the distance at source electrode center.
And in the prior art by between the included LDMOS of device and the spaced apart certain distance of LDMOS and other member realizes between LDMOS and and other member between the insulation isolation, thereby cause the layout rules complexity, layout efficiency is low to be compared with the device integrated level is low, the present invention is directed to first isolation structure of isolated LDMOS setting around the drain electrode of this isolated LDMOS, at second isolation structure of a plurality of LDMOS settings that are connected in parallel around the drain electrode of all a plurality of LDMOS that are connected in parallel, the ring of this first isolation structure and second isolation structure directly be around the distance at LDMOS drain electrode center to source electrode center, so need not to formulate independent design rule at isolation structure again, simplified the Butut process and improved layout efficiency; The part of device is served as isolation structure in addition, has reduced the distance between LDMOS, has improved the integrated level of device.
