Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a substrate and at least two circuits, such as a digital circuit and an analog circuit. The substrate is preferably derived from a bulk substrate wafer. The integrated circuit preferably comprises at least two islands in the substrate for noise isolation between the circuits. The two islands are buried-layers that are implanted, by preference, using conventional MeV techniques. A method of manufacturing an integrated circuit includes a substrate and at least two circuits. The method comprises the step of implanting at least two islands in the substrate for noise isolation between the circuits. The implanting is accomplished by conventional masking and high-energy implantation, such as MeV.
