Description

20 25 30 518 797 Detta är inte längre sant vid låga uteffektsnivåer (s. k. backed-off-tillstånd). I dylika fall ger kollektorvilströmmen ett väsentligt och till och med dominerande bidrag till den totala kollektorströmförbrukningen.
I en LDMOS-transistor förbättras linj ariteten väsentligt när uteffekten minskas, vilket är förklaringen till att backed-off-arbetsmoden är av speciellt intresse.
Linjär prestanda är också en stark funktion av styrets förspänning.
Det finns ett optimalt värde på kollektorvilströmmen som ger bäst linjär prestanda vid en given uteffektnivå. Att ytterligare sänka kollektorvilströmmen för att förbättra verkningsgraden kommer att försämra linjariteten.
REDoGöRELsE FÖR UPPFINNINGEN Ändamålet med uppfinningen består i att förbättra verkningsgrad och linj aritet hos en effekt-LDMOS-transistor under backed-off-driftförhållanden med bibehållen toppeffektkapacitet, vilken effekt-LDMOS-transistor innefattar ett flertal parallellkopplade transistorsegment.
Detta emås i enlighet med uppfinningen genom att minst en grupp av dessa transistorsegment har en annan tröskelspänning än övri ga transistorsegment.
Tröskelspänningen är således varierad (”graded”) över transistom.
Härigenom kommer mer och mer av transistorn, d.v.s. i själva verket fler och fler transistorsegment, att aktiveras när inspänningen på dess styre ökar, vilket möjliggör förbättrad verkningsgrad och/eller linj aritet under backed-off-driftförhållanden med bibehållen toppeffektkapacitet. 10 15 20 25 30 518 797 FIGURBESKRIVNING Uppfinningen beskrivs närmare nedan under hänvisning till bifogade ritning på vilken F ig. 1 är en tvårsnittsvy av två transistorsegment hos en effekt-LDMOS- transistor enligt uppfinningen.
BESKRIVNING AV UPPFINNINGEN Fig. 1 är en tvärsnittvy av två angränsande transistorsegment hos en effekt-LDMOS- transistor enligt uppfinningen.
Det är emellertid underförstått att uppfinningen inte är begränsad till endast LDMOS-transistorer.
På i och for sig känt sätt är transistom uppbyggd i ett kiselsubstrat 1 av pli-typ med ett epitaxiellt skikt 2 av pïtyp på sin ena sida och ett emittermetallskikt (ej visat) på sin andra sida.
Emitterområden 4 av n+-typ och kollektorområden, vilka vart och ett innefattar ett kollektorkontaktorriråde 3 av n+-typ som är omgivet av driftoniråden 5 av nltyp på båda sidorna, är anordnade i pïskiktet 2. Ett kollektonnetallfinger D år anordnat ovanpå kollektorkontaktområdet 3 av n+-typ.
Styreflngrar G är inbäddade i dielektriska skikt 7 på kollektonnetallfingrets D båda sidor ovanpå plskiktet 2. En p-fieka 6 år lateralt diffunderad under varje styrefinger 7 från dess emittersida.
Djupdiffunderade pïområden 8 gör det möjligt för ström att passera från emitterområdena 4 av nïtyp till pïsubstratet 1 med minimalt spänningsfall med hjälp av spänningsklampar 9, d.v.s. metalliska kontakter, som kortsluter emitterområdena 4 av n+-typ och pïområdena 8. 10 15 20 25 30 518 797 4 Som anförts i beskrivningsinledningen är det vanligtvis önskvärt att transistorsegmentens tröskelspänning är likforinig över hela transistom så att ström delas lika mellan transistorsegmenten och maximal verkningsgrad uppnås när transistom arbetar med full effekt.
Såsom också anförts ovan är verkningsgrad och linjaritet inte optimerade när transistorn arbetar under s. k. backed-off-forhållanden, d.v.s. under sin l dB kompressionspunkt, när tröskelspänningen hos transistorsegmenten är likformig över hela transistom.
Enligt uppfinningen justeras tröskelspänningen hos transistorsegmenten gradvis över hela transistom. I praktiken kommer grupper av transistorsegment att ha olika tröskelspänningar. Dessa grupper behöver inte vara belägna på en och samma bricka utan kan vara belägna på olika hopkopplade brickor Under drift kommer den konstanta förspänningen på styret hos transistom enligt uppfinningen att justeras för att göra det möjligt for en kollektorvilström att flyta genom endast den del av transistorn som har den lägsta tröskelspänningen.
Allteftersom inspänningen ökar kommer mer och mer av transistom, d.v.s. fler och fler transistorsegment, att aktiveras vilket möjliggör förbättrad verkningsgrad och linj aritet under backed-off-driftförhållanden med bibehållen toppeffektkapacitet.
Tröskelspänningen hos ett LDMOS-transistorsegment bestäms av styreoxidens tjocklek, koncentrationen av bor under styret samt valet av styrefingermaterial.
Det finns ett flertal sätt att åstadkomma varierade tröskelspänningar i en transistor.
Det mest praktiska sättet att åstadkomma varierade tröskelspänningar är att variera p-fickans dopning. 10 15 20 25 30 518 797 Normalt används ett maskskikt för att definiera områden där implanteringen i p- fickan introduceras i kislet och borimplanteringen sedan görs efterföljd av en värmeindrivningscykel.
För att åstadkomma varierade tröskelspänningar är det också möjligt att använda multipla p-fickeimplanteringsmasker och -använda olika p-fickeimplanteringsdoser eller implanteringsenergier eller implanteringslutningsvinklar för olika transistorsegment och fortfarande följa upp med en vanlig värmeindrivningscykel, -använda samma p-fickeimplanteringsdos varje gång men olika sekventiclla indrivningscykler eller -använda en kombination av dessa metoder.
Andra sätt att åstadkomma varierade tröskelspänningar i transistorn är att -variera mängden av lateral f-emitterdiffilsion mellan transistorsegmenten genom att använda samma metoder som beskrivits ovan, -introducera varierande mängder tröskeljusteringsimplantat innan styret formeras, -använda styrefingrar av polykisel med olika dopning mellan transistorsegmenten eller till och med använda olika styrematerial eller -variera styreoxidtjockleken mellan transistorsegment.
Beroende på den använda processen torde fler möjligheter enkelt vara uppenbara för fackmannen.
Om två eller flera separata transistorbrickor med olika tröskelspänningar monteras parallellt i samma kapsel gäller fortfarande den grundläggande principen. 10 518 797 Exempel: Genom att justera exemplevis p-fickeimplanteringens lutningsvinkel justerades tröskelspänningen för en LDMOS-transistor som arbetar i 1,8-2,0 GHz-området på sådant sätt att transistorns ena halva hade en tröskelspänning som var ungefär 0,3 V lägre än den andra halvans tröskelspänning.
Som en följd därav förbättrades tvåtonsinterrnodulationsdistortionen (IMD), som är ett vanligt mått på linjär prestanda, med ungefär 3 dB vid en uteffektsnivå 17 dB under dess 1 dB-kompressionspunkt jämfört med fallet med likformig tröskelspänning.
