Popis:	This article presents a detailed comparative analysis of two possible stacked-diode configurations operating as solar cells. The performance of a single p-well – deep n-well diode is compared with the combination of such diode with a n-diff – p-well diode in parallel. Both configurations occupy the same area but offer different performance and, accordingly, they can have different application scopes. A test circuit to gauge the diodes performance and their spectral sensitivity has been integrated along with the two diode configurations in a $0.18~\mu \text{m}$ CMOS standard fabrication technology. The measured experimental results for the two diode configurations under study are validated with an analytical diode physical model.
