Patent number: 6130458Abstract: The present invention relates in general to power ICs, etc. having the SOI structure, and more specifically to the structure in which an SOI substrate comprises a base substrate, an SOI oxide film formed on the base substrate, and active layers formed on the SOI oxide film, and also integrates on itself power devices and the corresponding control elements monolithically. Between this base substrate and this SOI oxide film is formed heavily-doped semiconductor regions having a conductivity type opposite to that of this base substrate. Hence, the junction capacitance between the base substrate and the heavily-doped semiconductor regions decreases an actual capacitance between the base substrate and the active layer so that to inhibit or prevent inversion layers from being formed at the bottom of the active layers.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 1997Date of Patent: October 10, 2000Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Yosuke Takagi, Koichi Endo

Patent number: 5939755Abstract: A power IC having an SOI structure including at least a supporting substrate as a bottom layer, a substrate insulating film, an SOI conductive film, an SOI insulating film, and an Si film. The Si film serving as a top layer of the SOI structure is divided into a plurality of active layers by element isolation dielectric regions, and a desired semiconductor element is formed in each active layer. A total capacitance between each active layer and the supporting substrate is small and an inversion layer formed at a bottom of the active layer in the conventional SOI substrate is prevented from being induced. The power IC is constituted at least by an element A in a first active layer and an element B in a second active layer operating in association with the element A. The first active layer is electrically connected to the SOI conductive film just under the first and second active layers.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 1996Date of Patent: August 17, 1999Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Yoshinori Takeuchi, Yosuke Takagi
