  • Patent number: 8753938
    Abstract: An integrated circuit, in which a minimum gate length of low-noise NMOS transistors is less than twice a minimum gate length of logic NMOS transistors, is formed by: forming gates of the low-noise NMOS transistors concurrently with gates of the logic NMOS transistors, forming a low-noise NMDD implant mask which exposes the low-noise NMOS transistors and covers the logic NMOS transistors and logic PMOS transistors, ion implanting n-type NMDD dopants and fluorine into the low-noise NMOS transistors and limiting p-type halo dopants to less than 20 percent of a corresponding logic NMOS halo dose, removing the low-noise NMDD implant mask, forming a logic NMDD implant mask which exposes the logic NMOS transistors and covers the low-noise NMOS transistors and logic PMOS transistors, ion implanting n-type NMDD dopants and p-type halo dopants, but not implanting fluorine, into the logic NMOS transistors, and removing the logic NMDD implant mask.
