Vertical drain extended MOSFET transistor with vertical trench field plate

摘要

A vertical drain extended metal-oxide semiconductor field effect (MOSFET) transistor or a vertical double diffused metal-oxide semiconductor (VDMOS) transistor includes: a buried layer having a first conductivity type in a semiconductor backgate having a second conductivity type; an epitaxial (EPI) layer having the first conductivity type and formed above the buried layer; a deep well having the first conductivity type in the EPI layer extending down to the buried layer; at least one shallow well having the second conductivity type in the EPI layer; a shallow implant region having the first conductivity type and formed in the shallow well; a gate electrode having a lateral component extending over an edge of the shallow well and stopping at some spacing from an edge of the shallow implant and having a vertical trench field plate extending vertically into the EPI layer.
