Abstract: The method comprises forming an implantation screening layer of predetermined thickness on the wafer, forming, in the screening layer, a first rectilinear, elongate opening having a first width, and at least a second rectilinear, elongate opening substantially parallel to the first opening and having a second width smaller than the first width is formed on the screening layer. The wafer is then subjected to ion implantation with two ion beams directed in directions substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axes of the openings and inclined to the surface of the wafer at predetermined angles so as to strike the openings from two opposite sides. The thickness of the screening layer, the widths of the openings, and the angles of inclination of the ion beams being selected in a manner such that the beams strike the base of the first opening for substantially uniform doping of the underlying area of the wafer, but do not strike the base of the second opening. The novel method and apparatus enables selective doping by ion implantation to be performed without the use of a mask which is otherwise necessary for screening the second opening.

Abstract: The monolithic vertical-type semiconductor power device comprises an N+ type substrate (1) over which there is superimposed an N- type epitaxial layer (2) in which there is obtained aP type insulation pocket (3). Such pocket contains N type regions (4, 15) and P type regions (8) which in turn contain N+ type regions (11, 12; 13; 14) and of P type regions (6, 7, 9, 10) which define circuit components (T1, T2, T5) of the device. Insulation pocket (3) is wholly covered by a first metallisation (21, 30) connected to ground. Such metallisation (21, 30) is in turn protected by a layer of insulating material (18) suitable for allowing the crossing of metal tracks (20) or of a second metallisation (31) for the connection of the different components.

Abstract: The principle on which the start up circuit of this invention operates is that of causing the MOS transistor (M2) to be turned on by sensing local electrical quantities thereof, specifically the potential at the drain terminal (D) of the MOS transistor (M2). The basic idea is to inject a small current into the control terminal (G) when the potential at the drain terminal (D) is high. For the purpose, an electric network (SN) is arranged to couple these two terminals together.

Abstract: A vertical PNP transistor integrated in a semiconductor material wafer having an N type substrate (40) and an N type epitaxial layer (41) forming a surface (42). The transistor has a P type buried collector region (43) astride the substrate and the epitaxial layer; a collector sinker (44) insulating an epitaxial tub (45) from the rest of the wafer; a gain-modulating N type buried base region (46; 46'; 46'') astride the buried collector region and the epitaxial tub, and forming a base region with the epitaxial tub; and a P type emitter region in the epitaxial tub. An N type base sinker (47) extends from the surface, through the epitaxial tub to the buried base region. The gain of the transistor may be modulated by varying the extension and dope concentration of the buried base region (46), forming a constant or variable dope concentration profile of the buried base region (46), providing or not a base sinker (47), and varying the form and distance of the base sinker from the emitter region.
