Integrated circuit structure with avalanche junction to doped semiconductor over semiconductor well
Abstract:
Embodiments of the disclosure provide an integrated circuit (IC) structure, including a triple well structure within a semiconductor substrate. A base region is within a doped well of the triple well structure, a collector terminal is within the doped well and laterally separated from the base region by a first insulator and a first avalanche junction is defined between a first pair of oppositely-doped semiconductor regions within the collector terminal. An emitter terminal is within the third doped well of the triple well structure and laterally separated from the collector terminal by a second insulator. A second avalanche junction is defined between a second pair of oppositely-doped semiconductor regions of the emitter terminal.
