Abstract: A novel trench isolated guard ring region for providing RF isolation is disclosed. The semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) device of the present invention comprises a substrate, an insulating layer formed on the substrate, a buried layer formed on the insulating layer, and an epitaxial layer of a first conductivity type formed on the buried layer. A first isolation trench is formed in the epitaxial layer and the buried layer that extends to the insulating layer and that surrounds a first selected surface area of the epitaxial layer. A second isolation trench is formed in the epitaxial layer and the buried layer that extends to the insulating layer and that surrounds the first isolation trench and defines a guard ring region between itself and the first isolation trench. A plurality of isolation chambers is formed within the first and second isolation trenches. A collector is implanted into the epitaxial layer in the guard ring region.
