Patent attributes
The electronic device having a Schottky diode includes first and second electrodes disposed on a semiconductor substrate and spaced apart from each other. A first semiconductor region is formed within the semiconductor substrate. The first semiconductor region may include a first surface portion in contact with the second electrode, forming a Schottky diode with the second electrode. A second semiconductor region having the same conductivity-type as the first semiconductor region and overlapping the first electrode is formed within the semiconductor substrate. A third semiconductor region having a different conductivity-type from the first semiconductor region, and having a first portion and a second portion spaced apart from each other, is formed within the semiconductor substrate. An isolation region is disposed between the second and the third semiconductor regions. The isolation region includes a first isolation portion and a second isolation portion spaced apart from each other.
