An electronics apparatus including a first substrate having a first surface and a second surface, a first switch connected to a second switch and soldered in series on the first surface of the first substrate creating a connection to allow switching between the first switch and the second switch at high frequency, an insulation having a third surface attached to the second surface of the first substrate, and a second substrate having a pocket of low permittivity located between the first switch and the second switch on a fourth surface of the insulation, the fourth surface being opposite to the third surface where the first switch and the second switch are located.
Method for creating the high voltage complementary BJT with lateral collector on bulk substrate with resurf effect
Complementary high-voltage bipolar transistors formed in standard bulk silicon integrated circuits are disclosed. In one disclosed embodiment, collector regions are formed in an epitaxial silicon layer. Base regions and emitters are disposed over the collector region. An n-type region is formed under collector region by implanting donor impurities into a p-substrate for the PNP transistor and implanting acceptor impurities into the p-substrate for the NPN transistor prior to depositing the collector epitaxial regions. Later in the process flow these n-type and p-type regions are connected to the top of the die by a deep n+ and p+ wells respectively. The n-type well is then coupled to VCC while the p-type well is coupled to GND, providing laterally depleted portions of the PNP and NPN collector regions and hence, increasing their BVs.

Bipolar junction transistor, and a method of forming a charge control structure for a bipolar junction transistor
A charge control structure is provided for a bipolar junction transistor to control the charge distribution in the depletion region extending into the bulk collector region when the collector-base junction is reverse-biased. The charge control structure comprises a lateral field plate above the upper surface of the collector and dielectrically isolated from the upper surface of the collector and a vertical field plate which is at a side of the collector and is dielectrically isolated from the side of the collector. The charge in the depletion region extending into the collector is coupled to the base as well as the field-plates in the charge-control structure, instead of only being coupled to the base of the bipolar junction transistor. In this way, a bipolar junction transistor is provided where the dependence of collector current on the collector-base voltage, also known as Early effect, can be reduced.
