背景技术
传统的基片泵对于大尺寸的夹存在低效率的问题。例如,传统泵中的中央梳形物具有比边缘梳形物高的有效体电阻并且在边缘梳形物之前被触发。中央梳形物比边缘梳形物接通得强并且在边缘梳形物到达故障阈值之前到达故障阈值。随着传统基片泵夹的尺度变大,这种不一致性变得更加严重。因此,降低了传统基片泵夹的总体效率。

发明详述
在下面的详细说明中,参考附图,附图构成说明的部分,并且在附图中通过示例具体的示例性实施方案的方式显示。然而,应当理解的是,可以使用其它的实施方案,并且可以进行逻辑的、机械的、和电气的改动。此外,在绘制的图和说明书中提供的方法不应解释为限制各个动作可以实施的次序。因此,不应在限制的意义上看待下面的详细说明。
图1为隔离外延调制装置100的一个实施方案的框图。调制装置100包括与接合焊盘104耦合的隔离外延区102、外延调制网络106和接地焊盘108。在本文中描述的示例性实施方案中,接合焊盘104实施为输入/输出(I/O)焊盘。然而,应当理解的是,在其它的实施方案中接合焊盘104可以不同的方式实施。例如,接合焊盘104可以实施为输入焊盘、输出焊盘、输入/输出(I/O)焊盘、信号焊盘、测试焊盘、可编程焊盘或电源焊盘(例如,与Vdd、Vcc、Vee、Vss等耦合)。
另外,半导体器件110位于隔离外延区102中。半导体器件110与接地焊盘108、外延调制网络106和接合焊盘104耦合。能够实施为半导体器件110的示例性半导体器件包括但不限于金属氧化物半导体场效应晶体管(MOSFET)、双极结型晶体管(BJT)、或横向扩散金属氧化物半导体(LDMOS)器件。示例性半导体器件可以在例如互补金属氧化物半导体(CMOS)技术、双极结型晶体管-CMOS(BiCMOS)技术、绝缘体上硅(SOI)技术、金刚石上硅(SOD)、蓝宝石上硅(SOS)或双极CMOS-DMOS(BCD)技术中实施。示例性半导体器件可以在硅锗(SiGe)、硅锗碳(SiGeC)、砷化镓(GaAs)、氮化镓(GaN)以及其它III-V半导体技术中实施,但不限于这些技术。
半导体器件110和外延调制网络106一起调制输入电压。因此,当接合焊盘104实施为信号焊盘(例如,输入焊盘、输出焊盘或输入/输出焊盘)时,隔离外延调制装置100可用于例如保护电路免受电压瞬变或电流尖峰脉冲,诸如静电放电(ESD)电流、和电过载(EOS)。然而,应当理解的是,还可以构思调制装置100的其它用途。例如,当接合焊盘104实施为电源焊盘时,隔离外延调制装置100可以实施为ESD电源夹网络(例如,两个电源管脚之间的ESD网络)。
调制装置100中还包括有基片122和势垒结构124。基片可由所属领域技术人员公知的任何适当的材料构成,诸如硅、石英或其它材料。势垒结构124将外延区102与基片122电隔离。因此,隔离外延区102的电位可独立于基片122而被修正。例如,在一些实施方案中,势垒结构124实施为将区102与基片122分隔开的偏压埋层。然而,应当理解的是,在其它实施方案中可以不同方式实施势垒结构124。例如,在一些实现中,势垒结构124为氧化物绝缘材料。势垒结构的侧边可以为硅冶金结结构、浅槽隔离(STI)结构、深槽(DT)结构、通晶片转接(TWV)结构或通硅转接(TSV)结构。浅槽隔离和深槽(DT)隔离结构可以填充有氧化物、聚酰亚胺或多晶硅材料。另外,基片122和接地焊盘108不一定与相同的电位耦合。然而,在一些实施方案中,基片122耦合到与接地焊盘108相同的电位。
图2为隔离外延调制装置200的一个实施方案的电路图。在图2所示的实施方案中,调制装置200实施为对ESD电流进行分流的保护装置。半导体器件210实施为作为对ESD电流进行分流的主保护装置的n沟道金属氧化物半导体(NMOS)。特别地,在该特定实施方案中,NMOS为多梳形物NMOS。也就是说,NMOS由如图3所示且在下文进行描述的多个平行晶体管构成。
另外,在图2所示的实施方案中,外延调制网络206包括电阻212和电容214,电阻212和电容214形成电阻器-电容器(RC)鉴别器。外延调制网络206还包括一个或多个晶体管216。在该实施例中一个或多个晶体管216也实施为NMOS。电容214表示I/O焊盘204和半导体器件210与晶体管216的栅极节点之间的电容。电阻212表示从半导体器件210和晶体管216的栅极到接地(GND)208的电阻。电阻器元件可以为硅电阻器、金属电阻器或多晶硅电阻器。电容器元件可以为硅冶金结、金属-绝缘体-金属(MIM)电容器、MOS电容器、垂直平行板(VPP)电容器或垂直天然板电容器(VNP)。
势垒结构224将隔离外延区202与基片222电隔离。隔离外延区102还包括体环218,体环218在图2中描述为节点。然而,体环218环绕半导体器件210,如下文更加详细说明的。体环218还包括位于具有相邻源极区的半导体器件210的梳形物之间的带,如下文更加详细说明的。体环218和P+环220之间的有效电阻在图2中标记为Rb。
在ESD电流开始时,由于I/O焊盘204和GND焊盘208之间的电阻/电容(RC)耦合,NMOS半导体器件210的栅极电位和晶体管216的栅极电位升高。由晶体管216传导的电流流过Rb并且抬高体环218的电位。NMOS半导体器件210的源极与GND焊盘208连接,因此正向偏压管体到源极的结。结果,以相对较低的电压触发NMOS半导体器件210的梳形物。换句话说,NMOS半导体器件210的梳形物接通或者开始以相对较低的电压进行分流。NMOS半导体器件210的源极管体结的正向偏压也有助于促进NMOS梳形物的均匀接通。NMOS半导体器件210的体电位由环绕NMOS半导体器件210的体环218控制。一旦梳形物被接通,梳形物开始对ESD电流进行分流从而保护其它部件免受ESD电流破坏。随着管体区的升高,晶体管的电流驱动提高。MOSFET电流驱动与(VG-VT)成比例,此处VG为栅极电压,而VT为阈值电压。由于管体升高,MOSFET体效应降低,引起较低的阈值电压。该效应也称作MOSFET反向体效应或动态阈值MOSFET效应。由于VT降低,晶体管的电流驱动Ids使得提高了对ESD电流进行放电的能力。
图3为调制装置200的简化剖视图。隔离调制装置200包括P+基片322、覆盖P+基片322的N+埋层324和覆盖N+埋层324的隔离外延区202(也标记且称作P体区)。调制装置200还包括N+势阱328,N+势阱328与N+埋层324耦合且封闭隔离外延区202。N+埋层324和N+势阱328在该实施方案中用作势垒结构以将隔离外延区202与基片222电隔离。在一些实施方案中,埋层324经由势阱328和NTUB 330与接地焊盘208耦合。在其它的实施方案中,埋层324浮动、偏压或与电源或基准电压耦合。在埋层324和N+势阱或边缘328为绝缘体结构的情况下,如果埋层324中的材料为多晶硅,则可发生偏压。在埋层324和势阱328为绝缘体的情况下,当埋层324中的材料为二氧化硅、金刚石或石英时,未建立起偏压条件。在一些实施方案中,势阱328可抵接或延伸越过埋层324。势阱328可以为深槽(DT)、或延伸到埋层324或在埋层324的下边缘下方延伸的通硅转接(TSV)。
在该实施例中,在各对相邻源极N+梳形物303之间添加专用P+体带301,如上文讨论的。P+体带301和N+梳形物303形成在隔离外延区202中。另外,N+势阱328与NTUB 330电耦合,NTUB 330与接合焊盘304或接地焊盘308电耦合。
体带301与源极N+梳形物303分隔开。每个梳形物303包括栅极315、源极区317和与焊盘(即,I/O焊盘204)连接的漏极区319。因此,体带301位于相邻源极区317之间。在该实施例中,利用金属材料将体带301与体环318连接。各栅极侧源极边缘与体环318之间的有效体电阻近似等于另一栅极侧源极边缘和体环318之间的有效体电阻。该有效体电阻在本文中称为且在图3中标记为Rf。因此,任一栅极侧源极边缘和GND P+环320之间的有效电阻为Rb+Rf,此处Rb为体环318和GND P+环320之间的电阻。在一些实施方案中,GND P+环320可与接地焊盘208耦合。在其它的实施方案中,GND P+环320与单独的接地电位耦合。
因此,体电阻横过NMOS半导体器件210内的不同梳形物303均匀地分布并且均匀地分布在各个梳形物303内。即,体电阻不依赖于位置。此外,由于体电阻的均匀分布,所有梳形物303均几乎同时被触发且以近似相等的强度接通。
另外,由于体电阻的均匀分布,所有的梳形物203几乎同时到达故障阈值。故障阈值为能够无误地进行分流的最大电流的点。因此,调制装置200能够达到与理论上的最大故障阈值近似相等的故障阈值。改进的故障阈值是由于这样的事实:调制装置200不限于较快地到达故障阈值的梳形物203的较低故障阈值。换句话说,如果体电阻不均匀地分布,则一些梳形物将更快地到达故障阈值。因此,调制装置200的故障阈值将受到梳形物203中的一个的早期故障阈值的限制。然而,通过近似均匀地分布体电阻,所有的梳形物203近似均匀地共享负荷并且几乎在相同的时间点到达故障阈值,这反过来增加了调制装置200的总故障阈值。
此外,由于均匀的体电流流动,与不具有均匀体电流流动的调制装置相比,MO 202的有效体电阻减小,并且保持电压Vsp升高,这使得能具有更多的操作净空高度。可通过Rtrig和Ctrig单独地调节触发电压Vt1,使得对Vsp的影响最小或没有影响。
图4为示例性隔离外延调制装置200的俯视图。从图4中可以看出,体环418包括位于梳形物403的相邻源极区之间的多个体带401。如图4中进一步显示的,各栅极侧源极边缘和体环418之间的有效体电阻近似等于另一栅极侧源极边缘和体环418之间的有效体电阻。
本文描述的隔离外延调制装置的实施方案可用于例如任意集成电路或装置中,以保护输入/输出管脚免受ESD电流的破坏。例如,图5为描述包括至少一个隔离外延调制装置500的示例性系统505的高级框图。系统505包括与电源511耦合的功率变流器509和处理电路513。
在图5所示的示例性实施方案中,功率变流器509并入了如上所述的至少一个隔离外延调制装置500-1。功率变流器509与电源511耦合且配置为将从电源接收到的功率转换成处理电路513可用的级别和极性。例如,功率变流器509可实施为直流(DC)-直流变流器以将从电源511接收到的功率的电压水平降低或升高到处理电路513所需的水平。可选择地,功率变流器509可实施为交流(AC)-直流(DC)变流器。
另外,在一些实施方案中,功率变流器509为高电流和高电压功率变流器。然而,本文中描述的隔离外延调制装置的实施方案在其它功率器件、高功率密度和高效DC功率变流器和高电压AC/DC功率变流器中实施。例如,隔离外延调制装置可在片外驱动器中实施。
在一个实施方案中,电源511在装置505的外部。例如,电源511可以为经由电插座与装置505耦合的主电源。在其它的实施方案中,电源511可以在装置505的内部,诸如电池。
另外,在该实施方案中,处理电路513还包括在处理电路513中保护电路的输入/输出管脚的至少一个隔离外延调制装置500-2。处理电路513和隔离外延调制装置500-2可在单片集成电路中或在包含单独管芯的共封装装置中实施。
装置505可以实施为任何电子装置,诸如手机、计算机、导航装置、微处理器、高频装置等。因此,处理电路的实施取决于特定的装置。例如,当装置505实施为手机时,处理电路513可以包括所属领域技术人员公知的数字信号处理器(DSP)、模拟-数字(ADC)转换器、射频发送接收放大器、存储器电路和微处理器。隔离外延调制装置500-2配置为保护处理电路513免受电压和/或电流尖峰脉冲的破坏,诸如静电放电(ESD)电流。

在块606处,调制网络形成在基片上。例如,可以利用所属领域技术人员公知的技术来形成电阻器、电容器和晶体管。在块608处,利用所属领域技术人员公知的技术将诸如具有上述多个平行晶体管的示例性半导体器件的半导体器件形成在隔离外延区中。半导体器件与调制网络耦合。在实施具有多个平行晶体管的半导体器件的实施方案中,方法600任选地包括:在块610处,在隔离外延区中形成导电环。导电环环绕多个平行晶体管。在这样的实施方案中,方法600还任选地包括:在块612处,形成与导电环耦合的多个导电带。多个导电带中的每个形成在多个平行晶体管的相邻源极区之间。在块614处,接合焊盘形成在装置上。接合焊盘可以为信号焊盘或电源焊盘。接合焊盘与隔离外延区中的半导体器件电耦合。
尽管本文已经阐述且描述了特定实施方案,所属领域技术人员应当理解的是,预测实现相同目的的任何布置可以替代所示的特定实施方案。因此,明确地表明本发明仅受权利要求及其等同布置的限制。
