Abstract
An integrated circuit device comprises a common-gated dual-oxide MOSFET including a protective device and a MOSFET. A common gate electrode serves as a gate electrode of the protective device and as a gate of the MOSFET. The protective device comprises a first gate dielectric having a first thickness over a first channel region and the MOSFET comprises a second gate dielectric thicker than the first gate dielectric over a second channel region. During a plasma process, a first current can flow through the first dielectric that is higher than a second current through the second dielectric.
