Abstract
A device with a plurality of structures with different resistance values is formed on a substrate. A polysilicon layer is formed upon the substrate. A silicon oxide layer is formed over the substrate. A hard masking layer is formed over the silicon oxide layer. The hard masking layer includes a full thickness portion and a thinner portion. The polysilicon layer below the full thickness portion is lightly doped forming a high resistance region. Below the thinner portion the polysilicon layer is heavily doped forming a low resistance region. However, in spite of the differences in resistance, the high resistance region and the low resistance region have the same thickness.
