Abstract

A Schottky diode includes a deep well formed in a substrate, an isolation layer formed in the substrate, a first conductive type guard ring formed in the deep well along an outer sidewall of the isolation layer and located at a left side of the isolation layer, a second conductive type well formed in the deep well along the outer sidewall of the isolation layer and located at a right side of the isolation layer, an anode electrode formed over the substrate and coupled to the deep well and the guard ring, and a cathode electrode formed over the substrate and coupled to the well. A part of the guard ring overlaps the isolation layer.
