  • Abstract:
    This work presents on-wafer characterization measurements of the X-Hall current sensor architecture implemented in 90-nm BCD10 silicon process by STMicroelectronics. With respect to a previous implementation, technological improvements in terms of active region, isolation layers, and metal stack configuration result in a substantially improved sensitivity. In addition, it is reported that the sensitivity can be further improved by applying a negative voltage to the depletion layer.
