  • Abstract
    Field-plated diodes, Punch-Through and Reach-Through devices and a new kind of Implanted Zener Diode have been studied with regard to their current sinking capability for use as protection devices of MOST gates. All conventionaly used protections show some drawbacks. The Implanted Zener Diodes feature a tightly controlled breakdown voltage, low dynamic resistance and no walk-out effects.
