A transistor is produced by forming a first part of a first region of the transistor in a semiconductor substrate by implanting dopants through an opening in an isolating trench formed at an upper surface of the semiconductor substrate. A second region of the transistor in the opening by epitaxy.

A device including a transistor is fabricated by forming a first part of a first region of the transistor through the implantation of dopants through a first opening. The second region of the transistor is then formed in the first opening by epitaxy.

A lateral bipolar transistor includes an emitter region doped with a first conductivity type, having a first width and a first average doping concentration; a collector region doped with the first conductivity type, having a second width greater than the first width of the emitter region and a second average doping concentration lower than the first average doping concentration ; and a base region positioned between the emitter and collector regions. The emitter, collector and base regions are arranged in a silicon layer on an insulator layer on a substrate. A substrate region that is deprived of the silicon and insulator layers is positioned on a side of the collector region. A bias circuit is coupled, and configured to deliver, to the substrate region a bias voltage. This bias voltage is controlled to modulate an electrostatic doping of the collector region.

A device includes a MOS transistor and a bipolar transistor at a same first portion of a substrate. The first portion includes a first well doped with a first type forming the channel of the MOS transistor and two first regions doped with a second type opposite to the first type that are arranged in the first well which form the source and drain of the MOS transistor. The first portion further includes: a second well doped with the second type that is arranged laterally with respect to the first well to form the base of the bipolar transistor; a second region doped with the first type that is arranged in the second well to form the emitter of the bipolar transistor; and a third region doped with the first type that is arranged under the second well to form the collector of the bipolar transistor.

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor element and a first connection member. The semiconductor element includes a substrate and an electrode pad. The substrate includes a transistor formation region, in which a transistor is formed and which is shaped to be non-quadrangular. The electrode pad is located on the transistor formation region. The first connection member is connected to the electrode pad at one location. The electrode pad is arranged to cover a center of gravity of the transistor formation region in a plan view of the electrode pad. In the plan view, a connection region in which the first connection member is connected to the electrode pad includes a center of gravity position of the transistor formation region.

Manufacturing processes leverage process steps used during CMOS formation to form one or more additional type(s) of devices on the same substrate used for the CMOS formation, and at least partially in parallel with the CMOS formation processes. A first layer of implant wells may be formed at a first depth in a substrate using a first mask, and then a second layer of implant wells may be formed at a second, more shallow depth, using a second mask. CMOS devices that are part of a CMOS platform may be formed using some of the wells, while peripheral devices may be formed using remaining wells.
