Abstract :
In this paper we present simulated results of a novel silicon RF LDMOSFET on SOI technology based on a 3D structure. It has a breakdown voltage above 80 V and a cut-off frequency around 6.5 GHz. Application of the RESURF concept to the third dimension raises the device breakdown voltage and current handing capability leading to better RF performance.
