Embodiment 1

[0038] Such as Figure 9 As shown, the structure of this example is mainly, in such as figure 2 On the basis of the shown structure of the present invention, a P-type lightly doped region 15 is added in the second N-type well region 14; the P-type lightly doped region 15 is located in the third N-type heavily doped region 13 and the fourth Between the N-type heavily doped regions 3 , the upper surface has a metal cathode connected to the cathode on the upper surface of the third N-type heavily doped region 13 . The added resistance structure of this structure has a voltage drop at both ends of the resistance during the working process of the device, which makes it easier to pinch off the device, that is, the voltage at which the device is saturated can be reduced. As the voltage at both ends of the device increases, the voltage at both ends of the resistor introduced in this patent increases, which can increase the constant flow rate of the current, and at the same time, the...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the semiconductor power device technical field and relates to a transverse current regulator diode and a manufacturing method thereof. The transverse current regulator diode is characterized in that a negative feedback resistor is led into the source of an ordinary current regulator diode, so that the performance of the current regulator diode can be higher. The resistor led into the ordinary current regulator diode has a certain voltage drop when working, so that a channel will be pinched off more easily, and the current regulator diode can quickly enter a constant current region, and therefore, the breakdown voltage of the transverse current regulator diode can be effectively improved, and the transverse current regulator diode can have low pinch-off voltage, and the constant current of the transverse current regulator diode can be effectively improved, and the effective operating voltage range of the transverse current regulator diode can be effectively extended. The manufacturing method of the invention is especially suitable for transverse current regulator diodes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor power devices, and in particular relates to a lateral constant current diode and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] The constant current source is a commonly used electronic equipment and device, and it is widely used in electronic circuits. The constant current source protects the entire circuit, even if the voltage is unstable or the load resistance changes greatly, it can ensure the stability of the supply current. In recent years, a constant current diode CRD (Current Regulator Diodes) has appeared on the market, that is, diodes are used as constant current sources to replace transistors, Zener tubes, resistors and other components of ordinary constant current sources. Constant current diodes have a large output current and have been made To a constant current from several milliamps to tens of milliamperes, it can directly drive the load, simplify the circuit ...
