Abstract
A high voltage device for use as a lower switch in a power stage of a switching regulator includes at least one lateral diffused metal oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) device and at least one Schottky barrier diode (SBD). The LDMOS device includes: a well, a body region, a gate, a source, and a drain. The SBD includes a Schottky metal layer and a Schottky semiconductor layer. The Schottky metal layer is electrically connected to the source, and the Schottky semiconductor layer is in contact with the well.
