A multiple field plate transistor includes an active region, with a source (18), a drain (20), and a gate (22). A first spacer layer (26) is over the active region between the source (18) and the gate (22) and a second spacer layer (28) over the active region between the drain (20) and the gate (22). A first field plate (30) on the first spacer layer (26) is connected to the gate (22). A second field plate (32) on the second spacer layer (28) is connected to the gate (22). A third spacer layer (34) is on the first spacer layer (26), the second spacer layer (28), the first field plate (30), the gate (22), and the second field plate (32), with a third field plate (36) on the third spacer layer (34) and connected to the source (18). The transistor exhibits a blocking voltage of at least 600 Volts while supporting a current of at least 2 Amps with an on resistance of no more than 5.0 m©-cm 2 , of at least 600 Volts while supporting a current of at least 3 Amps with an on resistance of no more than 5.3 m©-cm 2 , of at least 900 Volts while supporting a current of at least 2 Amps with an on resistance of no more than 6.6 m©-cm 2 , or a blocking voltage of at least 900 Volts while supporting a current of at least 3 Amps with an on resistance of no more than 7.0 m©-cm 2 . |
