Claims
- 1. A circuit element comprising:
- a source region of a first conductance type, provided with a source terminal;
- an intermediate region of the first conductance type, separated from the source region by a first volume;
- a first channel region portion of a second conductance type opposed to the first conductance type, provided with a first gate terminal, and occupying the first volume;
- a drain region of the first conductance type provided with a drain terminal, and separated from the intermediate region by a second volume;
- a second channel region portion of the second conductance type provided with a second gate terminal conductively connected to the first gate terminal, and occupying said second volume; and
- an oxide layer having a first face, wherein the first channel region portion, the intermediate region, and the second channel region portion, are deposited on the first face of the oxide layer.
- 2. A circuit element as claimed in claim 1, wherein the second channel region portion has a channel length greater than that of the first channel region portion.
- 3. A circuit element as claimed in claim 1, wherein the width-to-length ration, W/L, of the first channel region portion is substantially equal to 50/2 and that of the second channel region portion is substantially equal to 50/1.
- 4. The circuit element of claim 1, wherein the oxide layer has a second face opposite the first face, and also including a control terminal connected to the second face of the oxide layer.
- 5. A circuit element as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of the first channel region portion and the second channel region portion comprises an n-channel.
- 6. The circuit element of claim 5, wherein the second channel region portion has a channel length greater than that of the first channel region portion.
