Abstract

A method for forming a low Rdson LDNMOS and a high sheet resistance poly resistor and the resulting device are provided. Embodiments include forming first, second, and third STI regions in a substrate; forming a P-well in the substrate around the first STI region with a first mask; forming an N-drift region in the substrate between the P-well and the third STI region with the first mask; forming a dielectric layer over the substrate; forming a poly-silicon layer over the dielectric layer; performing an N-drain implant between the second and third STI regions with a second mask; performing a resistance adjustment implant in, but not through, the poly-silicon layer with the second mask; and patterning the poly-silicon and dielectric layers subsequent to performing the resistance adjustment implant to form a gate stack and a poly resistor, the poly resistor being formed over the third STI region and laterally separated from the gate stack.
