Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a polysilicon resistor having a plurality of segments, including first, second and third segments, the second segment located between and running about parallel to the first and third segments. A first header connects the first and second segments, and a second header connects the second and third segments. A first metal silicide layer located over the first header extends over the first and second segments toward the second header. A second metal silicide layer located over the second header extends over the second and third segments toward the first header. A dielectric layer is located over and contacts the first, second and third segments between the first and second metal silicide layers.
