Abstract

See full text

A disclosed power transistor, suitable for use in a switch mode converter that is operable with a switching frequency exceeding, for example, 5 MHz or more, includes a gate dielectric layer overlying an upper surface of a semiconductor substrate and first and second gate electrodes overlying the gate dielectric layer. The first gate electrode is laterally positioned overlying a first region of the substrate. The first substrate region has a first type of doping, which may be either n-type or p-type. A second gate electrode of the power transistor overlies the gate dielectric and is laterally positioned over a second region of the substrate. The second substrate region has a second doping type that is different than the first type. The transistor further includes a drift region located within the substrate in close proximity to an upper surface of the substrate and laterally positioned between the first and second substrate regions.
