Abstract
A semiconductor device or circuit includes a vertical bipolar junction transistor (vBJT) and a vertical filed effect transistor (vFET). The vBJT collector is electrically and/or physically connected to an adjacent vFET source. For example, a vBJT collector and a vFET source may be integrated upon a same semiconductor material substrate or layer. The vFET provides negative feedback for the collector-base voltage and the vBJT emitter and collector allow for low transit times.
