Abstract
A high performance, high voltage non-epi bipolar transistor including a substrate (12) with an n-type conductivity well (13) and an insulative layer (14) with first (15), second (17) and third (18) openings exposing the substrate in the well. A first p-type volume (19) surrounding the first and second openings (15, 17) beneath the insulative layer (14), and a second n-type volume (22) surrounding the third opening (18) beneath the insulative layer (14). A p-type intrinsic base (25) in the first opening (15) and in contact with the first volume (19). A p-type extrinsic base (30) in the second opening (17) and in contact with the first volume (19). An n-type collector (32) in the third opening (18) and in contact with the second volume (22), and an n-type emitter layer (27) in the first opening in overlying contact with the intrinsic base (25).
