Abstract
A high voltage semiconductor device is provided. The high voltage semiconductor device includes a tow voltage region, a high voltage region, and a high breakdown voltage isolation region. The high voltage region is surrounded by the low voltage region and has corner portions at one side thereof. The high breakdown voltage isolation region has an isolation region for electrically separating the low and high voltage regions from each other and a lateral double diffused metal-oxide-semiconductor (DMOS) transistor for transmitting a signal from the low voltage region to the high voltage region. In particular, a drain region of the lateral DMOS transistor is disposed between the corner portions of the high voltage region, and opposite edges of the corner portions of the high voltage region and drain region of the lateral DMOS transistor are curved.
