Abstract

A semiconductor device (10) having a gate (15), a source (19), and a drain (20) with a gate bus (25) and first ground shield (24) patterned from a first metal layer and a second ground shield (31) patterned from a second metal layer. The first ground shield (24) and the second ground shield (31) lower the capacitance of device (10) making it suitable for high frequency applications and housing in a plastic package.
