Abstract

The invention relates to a structure of parallel power MOS transistors, each of which comprises on a common face of a substrate gate, source and drain contact zones and three levels of the connection layers. The first level of connection layers (20) establishes a contact with all the gates and a connection between each gate and the adjacent gates. A second level of the connection layers establishes a contact with all the source regions (22) and drain regions (23) and a connection between each source (or drain) region and the adjacent source (or drain) regions, and has apertures insulating each drain (or source) contact. A third continuous level of the connection layer level (25) establishes a contact with all the drain (or source) regions of the second level of the connection layers.
