Abstract

See full text

A Schottky diode includes a cathode terminal in a high voltage region of a semiconductor die, an anode terminal in a low voltage region of the semiconductor die, where the anode terminal and the cathode terminal are separated by a junction isolation termination situated between the high voltage region and the low voltage region. The Schottky diode includes a junction barrier Schottky diode or a trench metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) Schottky diode. The junction isolation termination includes pzener rings. The semiconductor die includes a substrate of a first conductivity type, an epitaxial layer of a second conductivity type situated on the substrate, a well region of the second conductivity type situated in the epitaxial layer in the high voltage region, and coupled to the cathode terminal, a Schottky barrier situated on the epitaxial layer in the low voltage region, and coupled to the anode terminal.
