Abstract

The design and fabrication of TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) devices with low junction capacitance is discussed in this paper. The principle structure consists of two diodes and one zener diode. In order to reduce the high device capacitance caused by the highly doped zener diode, two diodes are added in series with the zener. A NPN transistor is created within the structure giving the device better current handling ability. Optimization is accomplished by simulation. Then the device is fabricated according to the design and conditions discussed. The result is compared with the simulation, verifying the design studied.
