Abstract

A thin film resistor (55) is formed over an etch stop layer 40. Contact pads (65) are formed n the thin film resistor (55) and a dielectric layer (80) is formed over the thin film resistor (55). Metal structures (120 are formed above the thin film resistor (55) and metal (110) is used to fill a trench and via formed in the dielectric layer (80).
