Abstract
A semiconductor wafer includes at least a partially manufactured high voltage transistor covered by a high-voltage low voltage decoupling layer and at least a partially manufactured low voltage transistor with the high-voltage low-voltage decoupling layer etched off for further performance of a low-voltage manufacturing process thereon. The high-voltage low-voltage decoupling layer comprising a high temperature oxide (HTO) oxide layer of about 30-150 Angstroms and a low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) nitride layer.
