Analysis Of Current Aggregation In Gate-Control Dual Direction Silicon Controlled Rectifier |
Abstract | ||
---|---|---|
The current aggregation mechanism created by the gate structure is proposed for electrostatic discharging (ESD). Through device simulation, the size-expanded gate structure in gate-control dual-direction silicon controlled rectifier (GC-DDSCR) is found to aggregate the surface parasitic current path and the main SCR current path. The SCR current path is consequently twisted and extended to increase the holding voltage (V-h). Two GC-DDSCRs are fabricated in a 0.5 mu m CMOS technology and tested by transmission line pulse (TLP). The V-h increases from 13.84V to 16.44V as the gate size expands from 2.5 mu m to 4.5 mu m. The mechanism of current aggregation is verified. |
