Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a transistor (30, 51) having a gate electrode (15, 52) wherein the gate electrode (15, 52) has a highly resistive portion (24, 25, 55). The highly resistive portion (24, 25, 55) is integrated into the gate electrode (15, 52) and is coupled to the gate electrode (15, 52) using a via-less contact method.
