Abstract

A method of fabricating a semiconductor device is provided that includes providing a semiconductor substrate having a first portion and a second portion, forming a first transistor in the first portion of the substrate, the first transistor being operable at a first voltage, and forming a second transistor in the second portion of the substrate, the second transistor being operable at a second voltage greater than the first voltage. The formation of the second transistor includes forming an extended feature of the second transistor with a photomask that is used to adjust a threshold voltage of the first transistor.
