  • Publication number: 20220052153
    Abstract: An avalanche-protected field effect transistor includes, within a semiconductor substrate, a body semiconductor layer and a doped body contact region having a doping of a first conductivity type, and a source region a drain region having a doping of a second conductivity type. A buried first-conductivity-type well may be located within the semiconductor substrate. The buried first-conductivity-type well underlies, and has an areal overlap in a plan view with, the drain region, and is vertically spaced apart from the drain region, and has a higher atomic concentration of dopants of the first conductivity type than the body semiconductor layer. The configuration of the field effect transistor induces more than 90% of impact ionization electrical charges during avalanche breakdown to flow from the source region, to pass through the buried first-conductivity-type well, and to impinge on a bottom surface of the drain region.

  • Patent number: 11216219
    Abstract: A memory management operation is executed on a plurality of memory dies of a memory sub-system. The memory sub-system determines whether a first measured current level corresponding to execution of the memory management operation satisfies a condition pertaining to a threshold peak current level. The memory sub-system determines whether a second measured current level corresponding to execution of the memory management operation satisfies the condition pertaining to the threshold peak current level. Mask data is generated identifying the first measured current level and the second measured current level. A request is received from a host system to execute the memory management operation. The memory sub-system performs, based on the mask data, a peak current management action during execution of the memory management operation.
