Abstract
Embodiments of present disclosure provide methods of forming a resistor. One such method can include forming a first transistor structure and a second transistor structure on a semiconductor substrate, wherein the first transistor structure includes a dummy gate thereon; forming a mask on the first transistor structure; forming a metal gate on the second transistor structure; removing the mask, after the forming of the metal gate, to expose the first transistor structure; and siliciding a top portion of the dummy gate of the first transistor structure to yield a resistor.
