Description

The esd protection that is used for FinFET
Technical field
Present invention relates in general to a kind of circuit that is used for Electrostatic Discharge protection, relate in particular to a kind of circuit that is used in cross-domain (cross-domain) protection of the FinFET (FinFET) of charging device pattern (CDM) interdischarge interval semiconductor chip.
Background technology
Along with the reduction of semiconductor technology size, FinFET (FinFET) is used for semiconductor technology more continually.Unfortunately, because the channel width of FinFET is less relatively, FinFET is more prone to stand the equipment fault that caused by the Electrostatic Discharge incident usually.Thereby, need a kind of solution that addresses this problem.
Because its physical structure, FinFET is considered to three-dimensional transistor.The active area of FinFET (drain electrode, raceway groove and source electrode) stretches out the extraordinary image rectangular box from the surface of the Semiconductor substrate at FinFET place.In addition, grid structure usually three sides but sometimes on two sides around raceway groove.
Because FinFET has relative higher drive current and owing to FinFET prevents the general ability of short-channel effect, FinFET has advantage in littler technology when compare with the device of similar size.Because making around raceway groove, grid increased the effective width of raceway groove, so FinFET has the drive current of increase usually.The channel width that increases allows bigger drive current.In addition, center on raceway groove by making grid, grid can more easily suppress the leakage current by raceway groove, reduces short-channel effect thus.
The advantage of FinFET makes it be used to littler technology, especially below the 32nm, but the sensitiveness that the compromise that is used for smaller szie has caused during esd event the fault to FinFET to increase.The active area width of FinFET is far smaller than another device of corresponding technical size.When esd event took place, littler width caused the increase of current density among the FinFET.For example, compare with about 2mA/ μ m of plane body MOSFET or about 1.4mA/ μ m of planar S OI MOSFET, FinFET had the maximum of 0.1mA/ μ m usually before device fault takes place.The increase of current density can cause the dielectric gate oxide to occur puncturing between active area and grid, causes the short circuit between grid and the active area.Thereby FinFET may complete failure.
Esd event is divided into three kinds of different patterns usually: Human Body Model (HBM), machine pattern (MM) and charging device pattern (CDM).Under HBM, usually the people will make charge storage on one's body he and she.Then, the people will touch the pin that semiconductor package is loaded onto, and make stored charge be discharged into semiconductor chip.Ideally, the circuit in the chip with guide current away from the internal components on the chip and make electric current leak to ground.HBM is generally three kinds of minimum voltage amplitudes in the pattern, but the common duration is the longest.Be similar to HBM, under MM, the machine that is considered to the metal machine usually will make charge storage thereon.Machine will contact with the pin of semiconductor packages and discharge charge stored.Once more, internal circuit should guide current away from the assembly in the chip and make it guide to ground.The voltage amplitude of MM and duration are usually between HBM and CDM.Under CDM, electric charge will be accumulated in chip originally on one's body.The internal circuit of chip is attempted making electric current guide to some power buss, makes electric current be directed away from other internal components of chip subsequently and flows out to pin in the encapsulation.CDM has the highest voltage amplitude and the shortest discharge period usually.
During this period, when causing FinFET to be easy to device fault owing to the discharge of the high voltage amplitude during esd event, the CDM discharge.Thereby, need a kind of device of during the CDM esd event, protecting FinFET in the prior art.

Suppose that negative CDM esd event comes from the VSS2 bus 58 or near, remove mobile in the opposite direction and plane P MOSFET 26 of electric current and plane NMOSFET 68 operator schemes are switched, circuit is similar to positive CDM esd event and operates.When negative esd event took place, plane N MOSFET 68 and plane PMOSFET 26 were in the rebound pattern.Electric current flows to VDD1 bus 12 from the outside contact 14 of VDD1, to transfer bus 40, arrives VSS2 bus 58 by resistor 74 and plane NMOSFET 58 by plane P MOSFET26.Once more, second current path will produce.Electric current also flows to the VSS2 bus from VSS1 bus 18 by forward biased diodes connected 42.Then, VSS1 bus 18 is in well below the voltage of VDD1 bus 12, makes power supply clamper 16 operate to contact 14 guide current from VDD1 bus 12 and outside.Once more, prevent that electric current from flowing through FinFET.
The embodiment that represents among Fig. 1 has simplified the FinFET that how to protect on the semiconductor chip.Compare with the active area of FinFET, the robustness of the active area of planar MOSFET allows multiple current more to walk around FinFET on the semiconductor chip.In 32nm technology and littler technology, this embodiment is particularly useful.Thereby, reduced the FinFET that in these technology, uses because esd event and the possibility of fault.
