Method of forming a semiconductor device with isolation and well regions

A semiconductor device and its method of fabrication are disclosed. The method includes forming a first well region in a semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor substrate includes a first doped region below the first well region. The first well region and the first doped region are doped with a first type dopant and the first well region is electrically connected to the first doped region. An isolation region is formed between the first well region and the first doped region. The isolation region is electrically connected to a second well region. The isolation region and the second well region are doped with a second dopant type The second dopant type is opposite the first dopant type. In one embodiment, the first type dopant includes a p-type dopant, and the second type dopant includes an n-type dopant. The method may further include, forming a second doped region within the first well region and below the isolation region. A third doped region with the first type dopant may be formed over the isolation region. The method may further include forming a gate electrode over the semiconductor substrate, forming source/drain regions adjacent the gate electrode and forming a protective charge recombination region below the gate electrode and the source/drain regions.
