Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for producing an integrated power circuit with a vertical power component and a control circuit for driving the vertical power component. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for producing an integrated power circuit with at least two vertical power components.
- Integrated circuits with a power component and a control circuit for driving the power component have been known as "intelligent power semiconductor circuits 11" to the person skilled in the art under the term “smart power” for several years.
- JP Mille A very high voltage technology (up to 1200 V) for vertical smart power ICs, Proceedings of the Symposium on High Voltage and Smart Power ICs, volume 89-15, pages 517 to 525, 1989; and K.Owyang, functional integration for power components, microelectronics, 4: 252- 254, 1990.
- the power component is usually isolated from the control circuit by a pn junction.
- latch-up there is a risk of so-called "latch-up".
- a fundamental disadvantage of SOI technology is that an undesirable control effect of the substrate cannot be avoided.
- the substrate acts via the buried insulator like a second gate electrode on transistors that are integrated in the film. If potential differences occur between the substrate and the film, this can lead to threshold voltage shifts and to changes in the switching state of the transistors, as described in the following specialist publication: K. Yallup, B. Lanc and S. Edwards, Back gate effects in thick film SOI CMOS devices, IEEE International SOI Conference, pages 48 to 49, 1991.
- a method for producing an isolated, single-crystalline silicon island is already known from WO 91/13463, which is insulated from the underlying substrate by a buried silicon dioxide layer and by trenches in the lateral direction.
- a gas sensor element is integrated within the silicon island.
- EP-0150827A2 Semiconductor structures are known from EP-0150827A2 and from EP-0444370A1, in which a part of the semiconductor material is removed by an anisotropic etching process.
- this anisotropic etching process is used to structure a pressure sensor with a silicon membrane.
- EP-0444370A1 discloses the production of a buried dielectric layer by means of wafer bonding, which serves as an etching stop layer for producing the recess by the anisotropic etching process. Neither of these two documents deals with the production of vertical power components.
- the present invention is based on the object of specifying a method for producing an integrated circuit with a vertical power component and a control circuit, by means of which influences of switching operations of the vertical power component on the control circuit are avoided.
- the invention is based on the above-
- the prior art is based on the object of specifying a method for producing an integrated circuit with at least two vertical power components, in which influences of switching operations of a vertical power component on another vertical power component are avoided.
- FIG. 1 shows a cross-sectional illustration of a first embodiment of an integrated power circuit with vertical power components and a control circuit
- FIG. 2 shows a cross-sectional illustration of a second embodiment of an integrated power circuit with vertical power components and a control circuit
- FIG. 3 shows a plan view of a third embodiment of an integrated power circuit according to the invention in the form of a monolithically integrated full-bridge circuit
- FIG. 4 shows a cross-sectional illustration of a fourth embodiment of the integrated power circuit according to the invention with two vertical power components
- FIG. 5 shows a cross-sectional illustration of a fifth embodiment of an integrated power circuit with a vertical power component and one Control circuit.
- an integrated power circuit which is denoted in its entirety by reference number 1, comprises two vertical power components 2, 3 and a control circuit 4 arranged between the vertical power components 2, 3.
- the vertical power components 2, 3 are implemented as vertical n-channel IGBTs.
- Each vertical n-channel IGBT 2, 3 comprises a source 5, a gate 6 above an n "epitaxial layer 7, which in turn is arranged on a p + substrate 8, which serves as a drain.
- the control circuit 4, which is shown in FIG ⁇ th embodiment has an NMOS transistor 9 and a PMOS transistor 10, is located above a rear etching recess 11 and is delimited from the etching recess 11 by an etching stop layer 12.
- the control circuit 4 is in the lateral direction with respect to the vertical n-channel IGBTs 2, 3 isolated by a LOCOS insulation 13.
- a low-doped n "layer 7 is epitaxially grown on the p + substrate 8.
- Oxygen is locally implanted in the epitaxial layer 7 in order to produce the etching stop layer 12.
- This oxygen implantation step is optionally followed by a high-temperature step in order to avoid crystal defects generated by the oxygen implantation to heal.
- field rings as edge structures of the vertical power components 2, 3 are generated in an additional process step of the standard CMOS process. Since the structures of the vertical power components 2, 3 are bevelled on both sides on the back, field rings can be omitted in this embodiment, since the edge closure is brought about by this so-called "beveling".
- the field rings 14 as edge structures of the power units are produced in the embodiment according to FIG. 2 by boron implantation and subsequent out-diffusion.
- a protective layer is applied to the front of the wafer, while the back is masked and the mask structure in the area of the etching stop layer 12 is opened using a conventional photolithographic technique.
- the mask is also removed in the region of the outer edges of the vertical power components 2, 3.
- the substrate is then etched to produce the etching recess 11 on the rear side and to form the bevels 14, whereupon the mask is removed.
- the buried etch stop layer 12 is separated by a SIMOX process (separation by IMplanted OXygen).
- buried dielectrics can also be produced as an etch stop layer using other SOI technologies (silicone-on-insulator).
- SOI technologies silicon-on-insulator
- the wafer bonding method is mentioned for this purpose, which is described in the following technical publication: WP Maszara, Silicon-On-Insualtor by Wafer-Bonding: A review, J. Electrochem. Soc, 138: 341, 1991.
- SOI technology is also suitable as SOI technology, which is described in the following specialist publication: A. Nakagawa, Impact of dielectric isolation technology on power ICs, ISPSD, pages 16 to 21, 1991
- the etch stop layer 12 can be formed by a pn junction or by high-dose implantation of boron or carbon.
- etch stop layer 12 In deviation from this, it is also possible to use an epitaxial silicon germanium layer as the etch stop layer 12 and, in the case of electrochemical methods, a pn junction as an etch stop.
- the thickness of the semiconductor membrane on which the control circuit 4 is formed can be adjusted as desired on the one hand via the depth of the buried etch stop layer 12 and on the other hand by means of an additional epitaxial layer.
- Lateral isolation of the silicon film on which the control circuit 4 is formed is not only possible with LOCOS.
- dielectric isolation using a trench or isolation using a blocked pn junction can also be effected.
- a vertical power component 2, 3 is not only the IGBT described, but any other vertical power component can be used without restriction. This includes unipolar and bipolar components, such as DMOS transistors and thyristors. In deviation from the structures shown, inverse doping can also be used in each case. The maximum reverse voltage of the vertical power components is not restricted by the technology according to the invention.
- CMOS control circuit 4 In addition to the CMOS control circuit 4 shown in the exemplary embodiment, other circuit technologies can also be implemented, such as NMOS circuits or bipolar circuits, which can also contain lateral high-voltage transistors and sensors.
- the etching recess 11 on the back can be filled in order to increase the mechanical stability or to change the electrical properties.
- insulating materials such as polyimides can be used here.
- P.Guillotte and T. Martiska, Polyimide solves chip isolation problems. Semiconductor International, 14 (5): 146-148, 1991.
- the edge termination of the power component does not necessarily have to take place by means of a field ring structure, as is shown in FIG. 2.
- Other edge structures can also be used.
- additional edge structures can be dispensed with entirely, since in this case the potential profile is reduced by the beveled Edges changes so that the surface field strength in the edge areas can be reduced.
- control circuit 4 is enclosed by the vertical power devices 2, 3. However, it is also possible to position the control circuit outside the vertical power components. As shown in FIG. 3, by combining several such structures on a chip, for example, a complete, compact bridge circuit can be generated, which in the example shown there in plan view comprises four power transistors 15, 16, 17, 18, each with Edge structures 22 are provided, which are controlled by control circuits 23 arranged in the interspaces. The control circuits are enclosed by an etch stop layer 24.
- FIG. 4 shows a further embodiment of an integrated power circuit 1 according to the invention, which comprises vertical power components 2, 3, but no control circuit is provided.
- Reference numerals corresponding to the reference numerals of previous figures denote identical or similar parts, so that a renewed explanation can be omitted.
- this integrated power circuit 1 with the at least two vertical power components 2, 3, the process steps for producing the vertical power components 2, 3 are first carried out, whereupon a lateral insulation layer 13 is produced between these vertical power components 2, 3.
- This insulation layer 13 can consist either of thermal oxide or of CVD oxide.
- a front protective layer and a rear mask layer (not shown in each case) are then applied, whereupon the rear mask layer is structured photolithographically in order to define a recess in the mask layer below the insulation layer 13.
- the substrate is then etched on the back until the lateral is reached Insulation layer 13.
- the power component shown on the right in the figure is a p-channel IGBT with an n + substrate 20, which forms the drain electrode, a p "drift path 21, an insulated gate 22 and a source electrode 23.
- the left-hand ver ⁇ tical power component 3 is an n-channel HVDM ⁇ S-Transi ⁇ stor, which also has the n + substrate 20 as a drain electrode and further comprises an n'-drift path 24, a gate electrode 25 and a source electrode 26 .
- the power components 2, 3 can also include control circuits which are arranged in the substrate material in the previously customary manner by means of SIMOX technology.
- the etch stop is formed by the implanted oxide layer, which then only serves to separate the power parts. As a result, the etching stop can be designed with small geometric dimensions.
- the method described last for producing an integrated power circuit with two vertical power components can be modified in such a way that a power component can be modified by a control circuit is replaced.
- the result is a method for producing an integrated power circuit 1 with a vertical power component 2, 3 and a control circuit 4 for controlling the vertical power component 2, 3, with the following method steps: performing process steps for producing the vertical power component 2, 3 and the control circuit 4; Generate a lateral isola- tion layer 13 between the vertical power device 2, 3 and the control circuit 4; Applying a front protective layer; photolithographic production of a rear mask layer with a recess below the lateral insulation layer 13; and back-etching the substrate.
- the power component shown on the left is an HVDMOS transistor 2 with an n + substrate 30, which forms the drain electrode, an n ⁇ drift path 31, a gate 32 and a source electrode 33.
- the CMOS control circuit 4 shown on the right-hand side comprises an NMOS transistor 35, which lies within a p-well 36, and a PMOS transistor 37. These transistors 36, 37 lie above the n "epitaxial layer 31, which is on the n + -
- the substrate 30 is located, as already explained, the power component 2 and the control circuit 4 are separated from one another by the insulation layer 13 formed by a thermal silicon oxide, below which the etching recess 11 on the rear side lies, and here too the control circuit 4 is influenced excluded by the power component 2.

Abstract
Un circuit intégré de puissance (1) comprend soit un composant vertical de puissance (2, 3) et un circuit (4) de commande du composant vertical de puissance (2, 3), soit uniquement des composants verticaux de puissance (2, 3). Afin d'éviter que les processus de commutation du composant vertical de puissance (2, 3) n'exercent des influences indésirables sur le circuit de commande (4), on applique pendant la fabrication du circuit intégré de puissance (1) une couche d'arrêt de gravure (12) sous la zone semiconductrice dans laquelle le circuit de commande (4) sera formé, puis on produit le circuit de commande (4) et le composant vertical de puissance (2, 3) selon des étapes usuelles de fabrication. On applique ensuite sur la galette une couche antérieure de protection et une couche postérieure de masquage. Après avoir structuré le masque afin de créer une ouverture au-dessous de la couche d'arrêt de gravure (12), on grave par attaque la face postérieure du substrat jusqu'à ce qu'on atteigne la couche d'arrêt de gravure (12). Selon un autre mode de réalisation, après avoir effectué les étapes de fabrication des composants verticaux de puissance (2, 3) et après avoir appliqué une couche latérale isolante (13) entre les composants verticaux de puissance, on applique une couche antérieure de protection et une couche postérieure de masquage, puis on crée dans la couche postérieure de masquage un évidement situé au-dessous de la couche latérale isolante, à travers lequel on grave par attaque la face postérieure du substrat jusqu'à ce qu'on atteigne la couche latérale isolante.An integrated power circuit (1) comprises either a vertical power component (2, 3) and a circuit (4) for controlling the vertical power component (2, 3), or only vertical power components (2, 3 ). In order to prevent the switching processes of the vertical power component (2, 3) from exerting undesirable influences on the control circuit (4), a layer of d is applied during the manufacture of the integrated power circuit (1). etching stop (12) under the semiconductor zone in which the control circuit (4) will be formed, then the control circuit (4) and the vertical power component (2, 3) are produced according to usual manufacturing steps . An anterior protective layer and a posterior masking layer are then applied to the cake. After having structured the mask in order to create an opening below the etching stop layer (12), the posterior face of the substrate is etched by attack until the etching stop layer is reached ( 12). According to another embodiment, after having carried out the steps for manufacturing the vertical power components (2, 3) and after having applied an insulating side layer (13) between the vertical power components, an anterior protective layer is applied and a posterior masking layer, then a recess is created in the posterior masking layer located below the insulating lateral layer, through which the posterior surface of the substrate is etched by attack until the lateral layer is reached insulating.
