A quasi-lateral diffusion transistor is formed in a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) wafer by forming a gate region, a body region, a drift region, and a source region and bonding a handle wafer to the SOI wafer at a first side (e.g., top side) of the SOI wafer; and removing a semiconductor substrate of the SOI wafer, forming a hole in a buried insulator layer of the SOI wafer, and forming a drain region for the transistor at a second side (e.g., bottom side) of the SOI wafer. The body region and the drift region physically contact the buried insulator layer. The drain region is formed in a bottom portion of the drift region exposed by the hole and is laterally offset from the source region. In operation of the quasi-lateral diffusion transistor, a current flow direction through the semiconductor layer is diagonal between the source region and the drain region.
