BCD (Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS) technology trends for power management IC

摘要

This paper reviews the technology trends of BCD (Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS) technology in terms of voltage capability, switching speed of power transistor, and high integration of logic CMOS for SoC (System-on-Chip) solution requiring high-voltage devices. Recent trends such like modularity of the process, power metal routing, and high-density NVM (Non-Volatile Memory) are also discussed.
