Semiconductor Device Including an LDMOS Transistor and a Resurf Structure

Abstract

In an embodiment, a high frequency amplifying circuit includes a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having a bulk resistivity ρ≧100 Ohm·cm, a front surface and a rear surface, an LDMOS (Lateral Diffused Metal Oxide Semiconductor) transistor in the semiconductor substrate, and a RESURF structure comprising a doped buried layer arranged in the semiconductor substrate, spaced at a distance from the front surface and the rear surface, and coupled with at least one of a channel region and a body contact region of the LDMOS transistor.
