Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a CMOS semiconductor device holding a high electrostatic breakdown strength by equipping an input electrostatic protecting circuit with a P-N diode having a cathode electrode consisting of an N-type substrate holding two different reverse direction breakdown characteristics. CONSTITUTION:This device is composed of the first diode which has a low concentration of anodes made by diffusing a P-well 2 to an N-type substrate 1 and deep junctions as well as the second diode which has a high concentration of anodes made by a source and drain diffusion 3 and shallow junctions. Even at the first diode, the source and drain diffusion 3 is diffused so as to improve its ohmic property. And yet, both first and second diodes are connected by an aluminum interconnection 6. An equivalent circuit of an electrostatic protecting circuit is connected from a, pad 7 to the first diode 8 and then is connected to the second diode 9 through a resistance component 10 and further is connected to an internal gate through the resistance component 11.

Conventionally, since MO8 semiconductor devices are susceptible to static electricity, electrostatic protection measures have been taken for their input circuits. However, in recent years, as the demand for CMOS LSIs and the range of applications have expanded, even higher electrostatic protection measures have been required. Furthermore, with the process filing, the gate oxide film thickness has decreased and the p-n

This method can at least protect the internal MOS gate from being destroyed by static electricity, but since polysilicon is formed on a ~1 μm thick oxide film on the field, it has poor heat dissipation effect and may be localized. There is a mode in which the polysilicon resistor melts due to the generation of Geel heat, and the PN diode junction becomes shallow.
, since the P-N junction is destroyed due to overcurrent, the device has the drawback of being damaged by electrostatic discharge even if the internal gate is not destroyed.

The first diode connected to the pad is formed by a P-well diffusion process, and has a low P-type impurity concentration at its anode and a deep junction, so it has a high breakdown voltage. In addition, the second diode, which is connected through the resistance of the P-type diffusion layer of the first diode, has a relatively high breakdown voltage because it is formed in a source/drain diffusion process, has a high P-type impurity concentration, and has a shallow junction. By determining the resistance value of the P-type diffusion layer of the first diode such that the resistance is low and the second diode is not destroyed, a CMOS semiconductor device having high electrostatic breakdown voltage characteristics is provided.
