Abstract
In this paper, we discuss the scalable NLDMOS design in a 0.18μm HV-CMOS technology. The design impacts in quasi-saturation are compared between the 25V and 50V NLDMOS to demonstrate the implications in output and fT characteristics. The STI depth sensitivity in DC, ac and HCI characteristics is investigated. The results prove a very robust design, featuring <;10% Idlin shift over 10 year lifetime for +/-10% STI depth variations.
