Abstract
The invention discloses a compact construction of an n-channel surface MOS source follower in a p-pocket in an n-type substrate. The source is connected to the p-pocket in order to avoid feedback. The drain is connected to the substrate which acts as a supply line. This construction permits manufacturing several output amplifiers with a minimum pitch. The invention is of particular importance for CCD sensors.
