ABSTRACT:
In a LVTSCR-like structure, an additional p+ region is formed adjacent a n+ floating drain to define a p-n junction with the floating drain underneath a polygate of the structure. The polygate is used as a mask during doping of the p+ region and the n+ floating drain, and the length of the polygate is adjusted to provide the desired triggering voltage for the structure. The triggering voltage is also adjusted by biasing the polygate.
