Analog ICs frequently include circuits which operate over a wide current range. At low currents, low noise is important, while IC space efficiency is important at high currents. A vertically integrated transistor made of a JFET in parallel with an MOS transistor, sharing source and drain diffused regions, and with independent gate control, is disclosed. N-channel and p-channel versions may be integrated into common analog IC flows with no extra process steps, on either monolithic substrates or SOI wafers. pinchoff voltage in the JFET is controlled by photolithographically defined spacing of the gate well regions, and hence exhibits low variability.
