Investigation of a Novel Wiring Scheme for 700-1000-V HVIC's

This paper investigates isolation and wiring in a typical 700-1000-V, junction isolated (JI), high voltage integrated circuit (HVIC), process. It proposes a novel technique for running 1000-V wires over the isolation to other parts of the chip, without causing breakdown of the isolation itself or inducing unwanted parasitics.
