Using only thin-oxide high-voltage (HV) devices with reduced V/sub GS/ (gate-to-source voltage) swing, it makes use of level-shift techniques to meet the constraints on the gate control signals. These static circuits permit the full output voltage swing of V/sub DDH/, while keeping the V/sub GS/ swing of the output devices within the safety limits, including during HV supply transients. Using a standard 2- mu m n-well CMOS technology, reliable, reproducible V/sub DS/ breakdown voltages as high as 120 V and 80 V have been obtained for HV-nMOS and HV-pMOS devices, respectively.< >}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DeclerqClementSchubertetal., author = {Declerq, Michel and Cl{\´e}ment, F. and Schubert, Martin J.

No process changes are required. By modifying the logical equations generating one of the physical masks from the design masks, a p-type buffer region for the high-voltage p-MOS was easily implemented. This modification does not affect the low-voltage part of the circuits. These high-voltage devices have been used successfully as output drivers in semicustom arrays, and as building blocks for custom low- to high-voltage output interfaces. Aspects of reliability, device protection, and circuit design techniques are addressed.}, language = {en} }
