Abstract

This work investigates several gate oxides reliability-performance tradeoffs in the architecture design of a high speed BiCMOS process. Reliability concerns arise due to often conflicting requirements of MOS and bipolar devices. The many extra bipolar process steps that are added in order to realize both MOS and bipolar device types, thermal constraints, as well as many extra plasma process steps impact gate-oxide integrity (GOI).
