Abstract

We investigate the current transport characteristics of input protection devices using LOCOS and STI structures in the retrograde well. We show that the carriers flow through the concave well doping region between the field and well doping areas in the retrograde well. In the STI structure, the current path in the substrate is restricted to the region adjacent to the STI boundary.
