Abstract
A BiCMOS device 10 having a bipolar transistor 60, a PMOS transistor 64 and a p-type polysilicon resistor 70. Bipolar transistor 60 is comprised of an emitter electrode 30, base region 26, and collector region formed by well region 18. PMOS transistor 64 comprises source/drain regions 52, gate electrode 40, and gate oxide 28. PMOS transistor 64 may also comprises LDD regions 44. The emitter electrode 30 and gates 40 are formed out of the same polysilicon layer and thus have the same thickness. If desired, the emitter electrode 30 and gate electrodes 40 may be silicided.
