Abstract

An integrated circuit is made with transistors having varying characteristics in the same well. One transistor, which is particularly useful as an I/O device, has a relatively deep source/drain with a relatively thick gate dielectric. The well doping is selected so that this transistor has low leakage. Another transistor type, which is particularly useful for low voltage analog purposes, has a relatively thin gate dielectric and the relatively deep source/drain. A third transistor type, which is particularly suited for high density and low power operation, has a relatively shallow source/drain, the relatively thin gate dielectric, and a high dose halo implant. A fourth transistor type, which may also be present for high-speed operations, has the relatively thin gate dielectric, the relatively shallow source/drain, and may have a halo implant. The halo implant will be of a lower dosage than the halo implant for the third transistor type.
