  • Abstract
    For long term stability of high voltage NMOS transistors the application of a SIPOS passivation layer over the drift regions has been studied. This has been found to change the device characteristics both for steady state and switching. This paper describes the mechanism of interaction of the SIPOS layer and the drift region of the device and presents 2-dimensional simulation results together with experimental data. An analytical 1-dimensional model is outlined and shown to agree well with the 2-dimensional simulation results.
