Abstract

A method of fabricating a semiconductor device (300) is disclosed. A low energy ion implantation (318) may form low voltage source and drain regions in a low voltage region (402-3) of a substrate. A low energy implant may also form a portion of source and drain regions in a high voltage region (402-2). A high energy ion implantation (322) may complete the formation of high voltage transistors in a high voltage region (402-2). A high voltage gate structure (418-2) may be exposed during a high energy ion implantation and mask a channel region.
